Exponentiation is when a number b, the base, is raised to a certain power y, the exponent, to give a value x; this is denoted =. For example, raising 2 to the power of 3 gives 8: = The logarithm of base b is the inverse operation, that provides the output y from the input x.
Arg(z) is the principal value of the arg function; its value is restricted to (−π, π]. It can be computed using Arg( x + iy ) = atan2 ( y , x ) . Log( z ) is the principal value of the complex logarithm function and has imaginary part in the range (− π , π ] .
The name Log5 is due to Bill James [1] but the method of using odds ratios in this way dates back much farther. This is in effect a logistic rating model and is therefore equivalent to the Bradley–Terry model used for paired comparisons , the Elo rating system used in chess and the Rasch model used in the analysis of categorical data.
The natural logarithm of a number is its logarithm to the base of the mathematical constant e, which is an irrational and transcendental number approximately equal to 2.718 281 828 459. [1]

Equally spaced values on a logarithmic scale have exponents that increment uniformly. Examples of equally spaced values are 10, 100, 1000, 10000, and 100000 (i.e., 10 1, 10 2, 10 3, 10 4, 10 5) and 2, 4, 8, 16, and 32 (i.e., 2 1, 2 2, 2 3, 2 4, 2 5). Exponential growth curves are often depicted on a logarithmic scale graph.
