NAME¶
std::log,std::logf,std::logl - std::log,std::logf,std::logl
Synopsis¶
Defined in header <cmath>
float log ( float arg );
float logf( float arg ); (since C++11)
double log ( double arg ); (1) (2)
long double log ( long double arg );
long double logl( long double arg ); (3) (since C++11)
double log ( IntegralType arg ); (4) (since C++11)
1-3) Computes the natural (base e) logarithm of arg.
4) A set of overloads or a function template accepting an argument of any
integral
type. Equivalent to (2) (the argument is cast to double).
Parameters¶
arg - value of floating-point or Integral type
Return value¶
If no errors occur, the natural (base-e) logarithm of arg
(ln(arg) or log
e(arg)) is returned.
If a domain error occurs, an implementation-defined value is returned (NaN
where
supported)
If a pole error occurs, -HUGE_VAL, -HUGE_VALF, or -HUGE_VALL is returned.
Error handling¶
Errors are reported as specified in math_errhandling.
Domain error occurs if arg is less than zero.
Pole error may occur if arg is zero.
If the implementation supports IEEE floating-point arithmetic (IEC
60559),
* If the argument is ±0, -∞ is returned and FE_DIVBYZERO is
raised.
* If the argument is 1, +0 is returned
* If the argument is negative, NaN is returned and FE_INVALID is raised.
* If the argument is +∞, +∞ is returned
* If the argument is NaN, NaN is returned
Example¶
// Run this code
#include <iostream>
#include <cmath>
#include <cerrno>
#include <cstring>
#include <cfenv>
// #pragma STDC FENV_ACCESS ON
int main()
{
std::cout << "log(1) = " << std::log(1) << '\n'
<< "base-5 logarithm of 125 = " <<
std::log(125)/std::log(5) << '\n';
// special values
std::cout << "log(1) = " << std::log(1) << '\n'
<< "log(+Inf) = " << std::log(INFINITY) << '\n';
// error handling
errno = 0;
std::feclearexcept(FE_ALL_EXCEPT);
std::cout << "log(0) = " << std::log(0) << '\n';
if (errno == ERANGE)
std::cout << " errno == ERANGE: " <<
std::strerror(errno) << '\n';
if (std::fetestexcept(FE_DIVBYZERO))
std::cout << " FE_DIVBYZERO raised\n";
}
Possible output:¶
log(1) = 0
base-5 logarithm of 125 = 3
log(1) = 0
log(+Inf) = inf
log(0) = -inf
errno == ERANGE: Numerical result out of range
FE_DIVBYZERO raised
