To enter a natural log, press the LN button. To enter a log with base 10, press the LOG button. To enter a log with a base other than those, divide the log of the number with the log of the base, so log6(8) would be log(8)/log(6) or ln(8)/ln(6). (The ln is preferred because in calculus it is easier to work with.)
in most cases they are the same
You divide log 8 / log 16. Calculate the logarithm in any base, but use the same base for both - for example, ln 8 / ln 16.
in math, ln means natural log, or loge and e means 2.718281828
ln is the natural logarithm. That is it is defined as log base e. As we all know from school, log base 10 of 10 = 1 just as log base 3 of 3 = 1, so, likewise, log base e of e = 1 and 1.x = x. so we have ln y = x. Relace ln with log base e, and you should get y = ex

You can calculate log to any base by using: logb(x) = ln(x) / ln(b) [ln is natural log], so if you have logb(e) = ln(e) / ln(b) = 1 / ln(b)

126 = n^12 12 = log(base n)126 Since log(base n)(126) = log 126/log n or log(base n)(126) = ln 126/ln n we write: 12 = ln 126/ln n 12 ln n = ln 126 ln n = ln 126/12 ln n = 0.4030234922 rewrite the natural logarithm showing base e (optional) log(base e)(n)= 0.4030234922 e^0.4030234922 = n Check e^0.4030234922 126 = (e^0.4030234922)^12 ? 126 = e^4.836281907 ? 126 = 126 True

We can define logab = (log b)/(log a)as would would for real numbers, just now the result depends on the branch of log defined at a and b.Defining log is a little complicated. But Log (with a capital) can be defined asLog z: = ln r + iθ = ln | z | + iArg z.So Log10b = (Log b)/(Log 10) = (ln | z | + iArg z)/(Log 10)

[ln(2) + i*pi]/ln(10) if you are referring to log as a base 10 log. ln refers to thenatural logarithm (log base e)The log of any negative number is imaginary. The formula above is derived fromthe relationship:-1 = ei*pisince you want log of -2, multiply both sides by 2-2 = 2*ei*pitaking natural logarithm of both sides: ln( -2) = ln(2*ei*pi ) = ln(2) + ln(ei*pi )which reduces to ln(2) + i*piIf you want log10 then divide both sides by ln(10)So log10(-2) = ln(-2)/ln(10) = [[ln(2) + i*pi]/ln(10)x = log (-2) = log10(-2)10x = -2Think about the smallest possible number you can put in for x.10-∞ = ?10-∞ = 1/10∞10∞ = ∞1/∞ = ?1/∞ = 0It is impossible to ever get 0 or a negative number because you will never reach infinity.log(-2) is undefined
