Compare with Alternatives

DimensionWPSMicrosoftGoogleNotionAdobe
Capability SummarySupports entering the IMLOG10 function in WPS Spreadsheet, with syntax prompts, cross-sheet references, nested calculations, and automatic recalculation.Microsoft Excel officially documents LOG10 as the base-10 logarithm of a positive real number on its LOG10 help page.Google Sheets officially documents LOG10 for base-10 logarithms and notes that Google Sheets does not support complex or imaginary values in LOG10.Notion officially supports formulas with properties, built-ins, and functions for database calculations, but its help content does not describe an IMLOG10-style spreadsheet function for complex logarithms.Adobe Acrobat officially supports calculated fields in PDF forms, including predefined calculations such as sum, product, average, minimum, and maximum, but this is a PDF form workflow rather than a spreadsheet function workflow.
WPS AdvantagesAdvantage: IMLOG10 can be used directly in WPS Spreadsheet for complex-number logarithm work. Distinct: It fits spreadsheet scenarios that use cross-sheet references, nested formulas, and recalculation after data changes.Compared with WPS: the cited Microsoft page describes LOG10 for positive real numbers and does not describe IMLOG10 on that page.Compared with WPS: the cited Google page states that LOG10 does not support complex or imaginary values.Compared with WPS: Notion formulas focus on database properties and formula expressions rather than spreadsheet-style complex-number functions.Compared with WPS: Adobe focuses on PDF form field calculations instead of spreadsheet formula entry and cell-based recalculation.
