Engineering - IMCSCH Function
Description
The IMCSCH function returns the hyperbolic cosecant of a complex number in x + yi or x + yj text format.
The hyperbolic cosecant of a complex number is defined as the inverse of the hyperbolic sine i.e.
csch(z) = 1 / sinh(z)
Syntax
IMCSCH (inumber)
Arguments
Argument | Description | Required/ Optional |
---|---|---|
Inumber | A complex number for which you want the hyperbolic cosecant. | Required |
Notes
Complex Numbers in Excel are simply stored as text.
When a text string in the format "a + bi" or "a + bj" is supplied to one of Excel's built-in Complex Number Functions, this is interpreted as a complex number.
The Complex Number functions can accept a simple numeric value, as this is equivalent to a complex number whose imaginary coefficient is equal to 0.
Use COMPLEX to convert real and imaginary coefficients into a Complex Number.
If inumber is not recognized as a complex number, IMCSCH returns the #NUM! error.
If inumber is a logical value, IMCSCH returns the #VALUE! Error.
Applicability
Excel 2013, Excel 2016
