đ What is Log?
The logarithm, or log, is the inverse of the mathematical operation of exponentiation. This means that the log of a number is the number that a fixed base has to be raised to in order to yield the number. Conventionally, log implies that base 10 is being used, though the base can technically be anything. When the base is e, ln is usually written, rather than loge. log2, the binary logarithm, is another base that is typically used with logarithms.
Each of the mentioned bases is typically used in different applications. Base 10 is commonly used in science and engineering, base e in math and physics, and base 2 in computer science.
