Prototype
double log(double x);
long double logl(long double x);
Description
Calculates the natural logarithm of x.
log calculates the natural logarithm of x.
logl is the long double version; it takes a long double argument and returns a long double result.
Return Value
On success, log and logl return the value calculated, ln(x).
errno
EDOM |
Domain error |
If x is 0, the functions return the value negative HUGE_VAL (log) or negative _LHUGE_VAL (logl), and set errno to ERANGE. Error handling for these routines can be modified through the functions _matherr and _matherrl.
Example
#include <math.h>
#include <stdio.h>
int main(void)
{
double result;
double x = 8.6872;
result = log(x);
printf("The natural log of %lf is %lf\n", x, result);
return 0;
}
