  2. Binary logarithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Binary_logarithm

    Graph of log 2 x as a function of a positive real number x. In mathematics, the binary logarithm (log 2 n) is the power to which the number 2 must be raised to obtain the value n.

  3. Logarithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Logarithm

    Binary logarithms are also used in computer science, where the binary system is ubiquitous; in music theory, where a pitch ratio of two (the octave) is ubiquitous and the number of cents between any two pitches is a scaled version of the binary logarithm, or log 2 times 1200, of the pitch ratio (that is, 100 cents per semitone in conventional ...

    Logarithms can be used to make calculations easier. For example, two numbers can be multiplied just by using a logarithm table and adding. These are often known as logarithmic properties, which are documented in the table below. [2] The first three operations below assume that x = b c and/or y = b d, so that log b (x) = c and log b (y) = d.
