LOG (Number,Base)
- is a positive real number and
- is the base of the logarithm.
- LOG(), returns the logarithm of a number to a specified base.
Description
LOG(Number,Base)
For Example,
LOG(10, 2) returns 3.3219280948873626
LOG(100,10) returns 2
LOG(4, 0.5) returns -2
- The should be a positive real number. Else Calci displays NaN error message.
- The should be a positive real number. Else Calci displays NaN error message.
- If the is omitted, Calci assumes it to be 10.
- LOG() can be used in an equation as -
LOG(LOG(10,2),3) + LOG(10,2) returns 4.414711580210549
- The function can be used to find the logarithm of array of numbers with a specified base.
e.g. LOG(10..15, 2) that displays the output as below -
n | base | LOG Output |
---|---|---|
10 | 2 | 3.3219280948873626 |
11 | 2 | 3.4594316186372977 |
12 | 2 | 3.5849625007211565 |
13 | 2 | 3.700439718141092 |
14 | 2 | 3.8073549220576037 |
15 | 2 | 3.9068905956085187 |
Examples

=LOG(A1,B2) : Calculates the logarithm of 10 with base 10. Returns 1 as a result. =LOG(A4:A5,B1) : Calculates the logarithm of values 120, 700 with base B1 (2).Returns 6.906890595608519, 9.451211111832329 as a result. =LOG(A4) : Calculates the logarithm of 120. Here base is assumed to be 10. Returns 2.0791812460476246 as a result. =LOG(100,B3) : Calculates the logarithm of 100 with base 7.5. Returns 2.2855542619359994 as a result.
