Log - Math

SKSE Member of: Math Script

Returns natural logarithm of passed argument as float value.

Syntax

float Function Log(float arg1) global native

Parameters

• arg1: The float value to calculate natural logarithm from.

Return Value

The natural logarithm of arg1.

Examples

float lnNum = Math.Log(5.89) ; lnNum ≈ 1.773256

;/ there's no function that returns a simple logarithm, but you can easily calculate it
   by multiplying this function's return value by 0.434294 (logarithm of Euler's number) /;

float logNum = (Math.Log(5.89)) * 0.434294 ; logNum ≈ 0.770114 (keep in mind, the result is not 100% accurate)

Notes

• Despite its name, this function returns natural logarithm of the number (ln), and not simple logarithm (log).
