#include <stdio.h>
int main() {
printf("\nNumber = %.2f", log10(3.54)); // Number = 0.55
printf("\nNumber = %.2f", log10(-3.12)); // Number = nan
printf("\nNumber = %.2f", log10(10)); // Number = 1.00
printf("\nNumber = %.2f", log10(-1));// Number = nan
printf("\nNumber = %.2f", log10(0));// Number = -inf
return 0;
}
We will get log value of any number with base 10 by using log10()
function.
log10(x)
x = input number
Example
#include <stdio.h>
#include <math.h>
int main(void){
double x,ret;
x=2.7;
ret=log10(x);
printf("log10(%.2f)=%.2f", x,ret);
return 0;
}
The above code will give this output.
log10(2.70)= 0.43

Shows how to calculate base-10 logarithms of numbers.
#include <stdio.h>
#include <math.h>
int main() {
double num1 = 1000.0;
double num2 = 1.0;
double num3 = 0.0;
double num4 = -5.0;
printf("log10(1000) = %.2f\n", log10(num1)); // Output: 3.00
printf("log10(1) = %.2f\n", log10(num2)); // Output: 0.00
printf("log10(0) = %.2f\n", log10(num3)); // Output: -inf
printf("log10(-5) = %.2f\n", log10(num4)); // Output: nan
return 0;
}
Output
log10(1000) = 3.00
log10(1) = 0.00
log10(0) = -inf
log10(-5) = nan
