Log10 (number)  

Definition:

Returns the common logarithm of the supplied argument (base 10).

Parameter Description:


number=float or integer

Command Description:

Log10() is the logarithm (or inverse exponential) function to base 10. Logarithms to the base 10 are called the common logarithms. The Log10() functions uses 10 as a base. It follows the series 10^x. This function is useful for finding the power of a number in base 10. See also: Exp Log

Example:

; To find the value of Log10(10^5)
x = 5
y = 10^x
Print y ; i.e. 10^5 = 10*10*10*10*10: returns 100000
Print Log10(y) ; ie. Log10(10^5) = Log10(10000): returns 5.000000
