Logarithm(log, lg, ln)

If b = ac <=> c = logab, a,b,c are from R, b > 0, a > 0, a ≠ 1
a
For example: 23 = 8 => log28 = 3

There are standrart notation of logarithm if the base is 10 or e.

log10b = lg b
logeb = ln b

Logarithm graph

logarithm graphics

It shows that when x = 1, log = 0; when x -> 0 => log -> -∞; when x -> ∞ log -> ∞

Logarithm(log) properties

logaa = 1
loga(b.c) = logab + logac
loga(b/c) = logab - logac
logabn = n.logab
logba = 1/logab
logbc = logac/logab
logab = logac <=> b = c
