Can a no real number be a pure imaginary number?

What is the Difference between a natural log and a log with base 10?

The natural log of a number is some other number such that if you take e (2.718281828...) and raise it to that other number you would get the first number. Another way to say this is that a natural log is a log with base e. The common log of a number is some other number such that if you take 10 and raise it to that other number you would get the first number. The natural log base, e, is a special transcendental number, chosen so that the derivative (respect to x) of ex is equal to ex . In other words, the slope of a tangent line to the curve y = ex at point (x, ex) is equal to ex for all x
