COMPLEX(real_num, i_num [,suffix])

 
 Returns the complex number given a real and imaginary coefficients.

 real_numThe real coefficient of a complex number.
 i_numThe imaginary coefficient of a complex number.
 suffixThe suffix for the imaginary component of the complex number.

 REMARKS
 
  • This function is only available if you have the Analysis ToolPak add-in installed.
     
  • If "real_num" is not numeric, then #VALUE! is returned.
     
  • If "i_num" is not numeric, then #VALUE! is returned.
     
  • If "suffix" is left blank, then it is assumed to be "i".
     
  • If "suffix" is not either "i" or "j", then #VALUE! is returned.
     
  • You can use the IMCONJUGATE() function to return a complex conjugate.

     EXAMPLES
     
     A
    1=COMPLEX(3,3) = 3+3i
    2=COMPLEX(3,4,"j") = 3+4j
    3=COMPLEX(0,1) = i
    4=COMPLEX(1,0) = 1
    5=COMPLEX(1,0,"a") = #VALUE!
