Computing the natural logarithm as .Li log1p(x) is more accurate than computing it as .Li log(1 + x) when .Fa x is close to zero. .Sh RETURN VALUES These functions return the requested logarithm; the logarithm of 1 is +0. An attempt to take the logarithm of \*(Pm0 results in a divide-by-zero exception, and -\*(If is returned. Otherwise, attempting to take the logarithm of a negative number results in an invalid exception and a return value of \*(Na. .Sh SEE ALSO .Xr exp 3 , .Xr ilogb 3 , .Xr math 3 , .Xr pow 3 .Sh STANDARDS The .Fn log , .Fn logf , .Fn logl , .Fn log10 , .Fn log10f , .Fn log10l , .Fn log2 , .Fn log2f , .Fn log2l , .Fn log1p , .Fn log1pf , and .Fn log1pl functions conform to .St -isoC-99 . +.Sh HISTORY +The +.Fn log +function first appeared in +.At v1 ; +.Fn log10 +in +.At v7 ; +.Fn log1p +in +.Bx 4.3 .
