  2. List of logarithmic identities - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_logarithmic_identities

    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]

  3. Logarithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Logarithm

    The logarithm keys (LOG for base 10 and LN for base e) on a TI-83 Plus graphing calculator. Logarithms are easy to compute in some cases, such as log 10 (1000) = 3. In general, logarithms can be calculated using power series or the arithmetic–geometric mean, or be retrieved from a precalculated logarithm table that provides a fixed precision.

  4. Logarithmic scale - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Logarithmic_scale

    Semi-log plot of the Internet host count over time shown on a logarithmic scale. A logarithmic scale (or log scale) is a method used to display numerical data that spans a broad range of values, especially when there are significant differences between the magnitudes of the numbers involved.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Casio_V.P.A.M._calculators

    The fx-82ES introduced by Casio in 2004 was the first calculator to incorporate the Natural Textbook Display (or Natural Display) system. It allowed the display of expressions of fractions, exponents, logarithms, powers and square roots etc. as they are written in a standard textbook.

  6. Discrete logarithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Discrete_logarithm

    In mathematics, for given real numbers a and b, the logarithm log b a is a number x such that b x = a.Analogously, in any group G, powers b k can be defined for all integers k, and the discrete logarithm log b a is an integer k such that b k = a.

  7. Common logarithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Common_logarithm

    The logarithm keys (log for base-10 and ln for base-e) on a typical scientific calculator. The advent of hand-held calculators largely eliminated the use of common logarithms as an aid to computation. The numerical value for logarithm to the base 10 can be calculated with the following identities: [5]

  8. Calculator input methods - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Calculator_input_methods

    This calculator program has accepted input in infix notation, and returned the answer , ¯. Here the comma is a decimal separator. Here the comma is a decimal separator. Infix notation is a method similar to immediate execution with AESH and/or AESP, but unary operations are input into the calculator in the same order as they are written on paper.

  9. History of logarithms - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/History_of_logarithms

    Engineer using a slide rule, with mechanical calculator in background, mid 20th century. A more modern form of slide rule was created in 1859 by French artillery lieutenant Amédée Mannheim, "who was fortunate in having his rule made by a firm of national reputation and in having it adopted by the French Artillery."
