Euler came up with the log, and being Swiss, would've spoken french. In French the natural log would be le logarithme naturel, and his notation would've just caught on. I might be wrong, I've not really looked this up, just seems like a logical assumption...

To make a natural log a log with the base of 10, you take ten to the power of you natural log. Ex: ln15=log10ln15=log510.5640138 I'm sorry if you don't have a calculator that can do this, but this will work.
If you are using a scientific calculator you will have a key labelled "log". To find the logarithm (to base 10) of a number, simply enter "log" followed by the number that you want to log. If you want a natural logarithm - log to the base e - use the "ln" key instead. If you haven't got a scientific calculator, use the one on your computer.
Instead of using W as a variable in your model, you use log(W).

Assuming you are asking about the natural logarithms (base e):log (-1) = i x pithereforelog (log -1) = log (i x pi) = log i + log pi = (pi/2)i + log pi which is approximately 1.14472989 + 1.57079633 i
