IMLOG (ComplexNumber,Base)


  • is any complex number.
  • is the base value of the Log.

Description

  • This function shows the log value of a complex number.
  • In , is any complex number.
  • is the base value of a Log values.
  • A complex logarithm function is an "inverse" of the complex exponential function.
  • It is same as the real natural logarithm ln x is the inverse of the real exponential function.
  • Thus, a logarithm of a complex number z is a complex number w such that .
  • The notation for such a is or .
  • If with which is in Polar form, then is one logarithm of z.
  • Adding integer multiples of 2πi gives all the others.
  • The complex exponential function is not injective, because for any w, since adding iθ to w has the effect of rotating counterclockwise θ radians.
  • So the points
