Compute natural logarithm

Returns the natural logarithm of x.

The natural logarithm is the base-e logarithm: the inverse of the natural exponential function (exp). For common (base-10) logarithms, see log10.

Header

<tgmath.h>

provides a type-generic macro version of this function.



Parameters
x
Value whose logarithm is calculated.
If the argument is negative, a domain error occurs.

Return Value Natural logarithm of x.
If x is negative, it causes a domain error.
If x is zero, it may cause a pole error (depending on the library implementation).

If a

domain error

occurs, the global variable

errno

is set to

EDOM

.

If a

pole error

occurs, the global variable

errno

is set

ERANGE

.
