The following shows an example of using the log () method:
#!/usr/bin/python import math # This will import math module print "math.log(100.12) : ", math.log(100.12) print "math.log(100.72) : ", math.log(100.72) print "math.log(119L) : ", math.log(119L) print "math.log(math.pi) : ", math.log(math.pi)
After running the above example output is:
math.log(100.12) : 4.60636946656 math.log(100.72) : 4.61234438974 math.log(119L) : 4.77912349311 math.log(math.pi) : 1.14472988585
