Excel COMPLEX function

The COMPLEX function converts real and imaginary coefficients to a complex number of the form x + yi or x + yj.

Syntax

COMPLEX(real_num, i_num, [suffix])

Arguments

  • Real_num (required): The real coefficient.
  • I_number (required): The imaginary coefficient.
  • Suffix (optional): The suffix for the imaginary coefficient. It can be lowercase “i” or “j”. If omitted, the default is “i”.

Remarks

1. A complex number is a combination of a real number and an imaginary number.
2. The #VALUE! error occurs if any of the following conditions is met:
-- Either of the supplied arguments “real_number” and “i_num” is nonnumeric.
-- “Suffix” is any character other than “i” or “j”.

Return value

It returns a complex number as text.

Example

As shown in the table below, to convert the real coefficient and the imaginary coefficient with given suffix, you can do as follows.

Select a cell (says E6 in this case), enter the formula below and press the Enter key to get the first complex number. Select this result cell and then drag its AutoFill Handle down to get other complex numbers.

=COMPLEX(B6,C6,D6)
