About This Feature

Overview

IMCONJUGATE is an engineering function in WPS Spreadsheet on Windows. It returns the complex conjugate of a complex number and is useful for complex-number calculations, engineering analysis, and formula building.

Core capabilities include:

Entering the IMCONJUGATE function directly for complex-number calculations.
Filling in function arguments with syntax prompts during formula editing.
Using cross-worksheet references to calculate values from other sheets.
Combining IMCONJUGATE with nested formulas and automatic recalculation.

System Requirements

Item	Requirement
Operating system	A Windows device that can run WPS Office
App version	The latest version of WPS Office is recommended; WPS Spreadsheet versions generally support this function
Network	No mandatory internet connection is required for local formula entry and calculation; internet access is needed for download, installation, and account-related actions
Other	WPS Office needs to be installed, and you need an editable spreadsheet file

Download & Installation

Item	Details
Official download	WPS Office Free Download
Installation	Download the Windows installer and complete setup with the installation wizard
Post-install check	Open WPS Office, create or open a spreadsheet, and type `=IMCONJUGATE(` in a cell to confirm that the function prompt appears

Dimension	WPS	Microsoft	Google	Notion	Adobe
Capability Summary	IMCONJUGATE can be entered directly in WPS Spreadsheet, with syntax prompts, cross-worksheet references, nested formulas, and automatic recalculation.	Excel provides the IMCONJUGATE function to return the complex conjugate of a complex number.	Google Sheets lists IMCONJUGATE in its engineering functions and supports formula entry with a visible help box during editing.	Notion formulas can calculate with database properties, built-ins, and functions, but its official formula documentation does not describe spreadsheet-style complex engineering functions such as IMCONJUGATE.	Acrobat supports calculated PDF form fields for sums, products, averages, and related rules, but it is not a spreadsheet function environment.
WPS Advantages	Advantage: Direct spreadsheet use for complex-number formulas, plus cross-worksheet references and automatic recalculation in one worksheet workflow.	Compared with WPS: Excel also provides a direct IMCONJUGATE function and fits Microsoft-centered spreadsheet workflows.	Compared with WPS: Google Sheets also supports IMCONJUGATE, with more emphasis on browser-based collaboration.	Compared with WPS: Notion formulas focus on database-property calculations rather than spreadsheet engineering functions for complex numbers.	Compared with WPS: Acrobat calculations are designed for PDF forms instead of worksheet-based formula analysis.

Overall Conclusion

If your work centers on spreadsheet-based complex-number calculations, WPS provides a direct IMCONJUGATE workflow with formula prompts, references, and recalculation in one place. Notion and Adobe serve different calculation models, so they fit database or PDF form scenarios rather than spreadsheet engineering functions.

Use Cases

No.	Scenario	Suitable for	Main challenge	How WPS helps
1	Getting the conjugate of a complex result	Students and teachers	Manually changing the sign in a complex number can be error-prone	Enter IMCONJUGATE in a cell to return the conjugate directly
2	Analyzing complex values across sheets	Analysts	Complex values stored on different worksheets are harder to organize manually	Use cross-worksheet references with IMCONJUGATE
3	Building combined formulas	Engineering and research users	Complex-number functions often need to work with other formulas	Nest IMCONJUGATE inside a larger formula
4	Updating results after data changes	Everyday spreadsheet users	Repeating calculations after source data changes takes time	Let automatic recalculation refresh the result
5	Learning and checking formula syntax	New users	Function argument formats may be unfamiliar	Use the formula prompt to review syntax while typing
