logarithmic function is used to simplify complex mathematical calculation. FOR example- Tedious multi-digit multiplication steps can be replaced by table look-ups and simpler addition because of the fact-important in its own right-that the logarithm of a product is the sum of the logarithms of the factors:if someone needs to calculate value of 2.33153.017 he can calculate it by using logarithmic function.

The logarithm of a number is the exponent by which another fixed value, the base, has to be raised to produce that number. For example, the logarithm of 1000 to base 10 is 3
