This tool calculates the Logarithm with base n of a number x.
Formula
y = Logn(x)
Example Calculation
The Logarithm base n = 4 of x = 64 is 3.
Applications of Logarithms
- In computer science, base-2 logarithms (log2) are commonly used to measure the complexity of algorithms.
- In finance, logarithms help model exponential growth or decay, such as in compound interest.
- In engineering and physics, logarithms with base e (natural logs) are used to solve problems involving exponential growth or decay, like radioactive decay or population growth.
