You can edit some iCloud documents via webbrowser based versions of
Apple's iWork applications - so you could start a Numbers spreadsheet
at home on your Mac, and continue working on it using the clumsy
Windoze PC at your workplace ... in your lunch break of course. ;-)

But realistically, for most people, iCloud is not very useful
(especially thanks to the silly data caps, slow / flakey internet, and
overpriced mobile data costs in many places). You're better to save
that Numbers spreadsheet as an Excel spreadsheet and take it to work on
a USB key ring drive.
