Frequently Asked Questions
What is a logarithm?▾
log_b(x) = y means b^y = x. The logarithm answers: "to what power must I raise b to get x?" E.g. log₁₀(100) = 2 because 10² = 100.
What is the natural logarithm (ln)?▾
ln(x) = log_e(x), where e ≈ 2.71828. It is the inverse of e^x and appears throughout calculus, physics and compound growth formulas.
What is the change of base formula?▾
log_b(x) = ln(x) / ln(b). This allows calculating any base using just the natural log, which is what computers compute natively.
