log
log(3M) Mathematical Library Functions log(3M)
NAME
log, logf, logl - natural logarithm function
SYNOPSIS
c99 [ flag... ] file... -lm [ library... ]
#include <math.h>
double log(double x);
float logf(float x);
long double logl(long double x);
DESCRIPTION
These functions compute the natural logarithm of their argument x, log(e)(x).
RETURN VALUES
Upon successful completion, log() returns the natural logarithm of x.
If x is +-0, a pole error occurs and log(), logf(), and logl() return -HUGE_VAL, -HUGE_VALF, and -HUGE_VALL, respectively.
For finite values of x that are less than 0, or if x is -Inf, a domain error occurs and a NaN is returned.
If x is NaN, a NaN is returned.
If x is 1, +0 is returned.
If x is +Inf, x is returned.
For exceptional cases, matherr(3M) tabulates the values to be returned by log() as specified by SVID3 and XPG3.
ERRORS
These functions will fail if:
Domain Error The finite value of x is negative, or x is -Inf.
If the integer expression (math_errhandling & MATH_ERREXCEPT) is non-zero, the invalid floating-point exception is raised.
The log() function sets errno to EDOM if the value of x is negative.
Pole Error The value of x is 0.
If the integer expression (math_errhandling & MATH_ERREXCEPT) is non-zero, the divide-by-zero floating-point exception is
raised.
USAGE
An application wanting to check for exceptions should call feclearexcept(FE_ALL_EXCEPT) before calling these functions. On return, if
fetestexcept(FE_INVALID | FE_DIVBYZERO | FE_OVERFLOW | FE_UNDERFLOW) is non-zero, an exception has been raised. An application should
either examine the return value or check the floating point exception flags to detect exceptions.
An application can also set errno to 0 before calling log(). On return, if errno is non-zero, an error has occurred. The logf() and logl()
functions do not set errno.
