NEC-LIST: How does NEC4 work?

Given that a wire segment is defined in NEC4 and excited by an
incident plane wave of magnitude 1 V/m at frequency f. Is it correct
to say that the current NEC4 calculates on the wire segment is simply
the time-domain response of the system to a unit complex exponential
at frequency f?

That is, if the input E is:

 E(t)=exp[-2 pi i f t] ,

then is the NEC4 output equal to A, where the time-domain response
is:

R(t)=A exp[-2 pi i f t] ,

A being a complex number?
