Returns the result of multiplying a series of complex numbers together.
Sample Usage
IMPRODUCT(A2:A100)
IMPRODUCT("1+2i",3,"4i")
IMPRODUCT("1+2i","3+5i",A2:A50)
Syntax
IMPRODUCT(factor1, [factor2, ...])
factor1- The first complex number or range to calculate for the product.factor2, ... - [ OPTIONAL ] - More complex numbers to multiply by.
Notes
- The product of two complex numbers is defined as follows:
- (a+bi)(c+di) = (ac-bd) + (ad+bc)i
- You can multiply complex numbers only if they have the same suffix (i or j). For example, you can't do
IMPRODUCT("4+3i", "1+2j").
