Subject: [OASIS Issue Tracker] Updated: (OFFICE-2344) 3.4 Complex Number -conversion to complex



     [ http://tools.oasis-open.org/issues/browse/OFFICE-2344?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]

Eike Rathke updated OFFICE-2344:
--------------------------------

    Proposal: 
Change 
Functions and operators that accept complex numbers shall accept Text values as complex numbers (see the section on convert to complex), as well as Numbers that are not complex numbers, so IMSUM("3i";4) will produce the same result as COMPLEX(4;3).

to
Functions and operators that accept complex numbers shall accept Text values as complex numbers (see 5.3.10 Conversion to Complex Number), as well as Numbers that are not complex numbers.
Note: IMSUM("3i";4) produces the same result as COMPLEX(4;3).

Reject the change that added " Office-2344" to that paragraph.


  was:Suggest that we drop this text. Possibly add a note to Complex() and elsewhere that conversion to complex is in operation. 

    Assignee: Eike Rathke  (was: Dennis Hamilton)

In draft22a the first two parameters of COMPLEX are correctly Number.
The text in 3.4 Complex Number is not a note anymore:
"Functions and operators that accept complex numbers shall accept Text values as complex numbers (see the section on convert to complex), as well as Numbers that are not complex numbers, so IMSUM("3i";4) will produce the same result as COMPLEX(4;3)."

Note that, as discussed on the mailing list, Patrick will replace the entire "Portable documents shall ..." section.

> If Text and Number values are automatically converted, then how does COMPLEX() accept Text values? 
> By the time the value reaches COMPLEX() it is a complex number. 
> Yes?
