Syntax

Note: Classes in the java.lang package are imported automatically, so it is not necessary to do it manually - we use just Math.log() call.

Parametersx - double value in the range 0 to +Infinitive (primitive value).
Result

number value calculated as ln(x) mathematical function (primitive value).

If x is negative it returns NaN.

If x is equal to 0 it returns -Infinity.

If x is equal to +Infinity it returns -Infinity.

Description

log is a static method that takes one parameter and returns an approximation of the ln(x) function (natural logarithm function - logarithm with base e).
