About This Feature

Overview

COTH is a spreadsheet function in WPS that returns the hyperbolic cotangent of a given value. It is useful for math calculations, engineering analysis, and worksheet scenarios that need direct function-based results.

Key capabilities include:

Enter =COTH(...) directly in a cell.
Use the function with nested formulas.
Reference cells across worksheets.
Recalculate results automatically when source data changes.

System Requirements

Item	Requirement
Operating system	A Windows device that can run WPS Office normally
App version	The latest version of WPS Office is recommended for full formula prompts and editing support
Network	Local formula calculation does not require a network connection; download, installation, and account services do
Other	You need access to spreadsheet files and permission to edit formulas in cells

Download & Installation

Item	Details
Official download	WPS Office Free Download
Check after installation	Open WPS Office, create or open a spreadsheet, and type `=COTH(` in a cell to confirm the formula editing experience

Dimension	WPS	Microsoft	Google	Notion	Adobe
Capability Summary	COTH can be entered directly in spreadsheet cells, with parameter input, cross-sheet references, nested formulas, and automatic recalculation.	Word supports formulas in tables and can update results automatically when the document opens or manually on demand, but its formula model is built for document tables.	Google Sheets supports formulas and functions in cells, with a help box, range selection, and nested functions.	Notion formulas work with database properties and functions to generate results, which fits property-based workflows rather than traditional cell formulas.	Acrobat supports calculation fields in PDF forms, which fit rule-based form calculations rather than general spreadsheet function editing.
WPS Advantages	Advantage: It fits desktop spreadsheet work directly, with formula prompts, cross-sheet references, and recalculation when data changes.	Compared with WPS: It can calculate in tables, but the workflow is more document-table oriented and does not focus on spreadsheet-style cross-sheet analysis.	Compared with WPS: It also supports formulas and nested calculations, while collaboration is a stronger focus; WPS is more aligned with local desktop spreadsheet editing.	Compared with WPS: Its formulas depend on database properties, so it is less suited to fast cell-by-cell spreadsheet function entry.	Compared with WPS: Its calculation features focus on PDF form field rules instead of everyday worksheet function analysis.

Overall Conclusion
WPS COTH is a practical fit for Windows users who want direct spreadsheet function entry and result calculation in a desktop workflow. Other products fit document tables, online database formulas, or PDF form rules more closely, while WPS stays focused on everyday worksheet editing.
