CLog10

Returns the base-ten logarithm of a complex number.

Syntax

CLog10( byref z as Complex ) as Complex

Notes

• CLog( z ) / LN10, so it inherits CLog's branch cut along the negative real axis.
• CLog( z, 10.0 ) is the same value by the same route; this exists because base ten is the one worth a name.

Examples

#import "std/numeric"
using numeric

print CToString( CLog10( CSet( 100, 0 ) ) )    '' 2+0i
print CToString( CLog10( CSet( 0.001, 0 ) ) )  '' -2.9999999999999996+0i
print CToString( CLog10( CSet( -1, 0.0 ) ) )   '' 0+1.3643763538418412i   -- the cut is inherited
