std:: log10, std:: log10f, std:: log10l

Parameters

Return value

If no errors occur, the common (base- 10 ) logarithm of num ( log 10 (num) or lg(num) ) is returned.

If a domain error occurs, an implementation-defined value is returned (NaN where supported).

If a pole error occurs, -HUGE_VAL , -HUGE_VALF , or -HUGE_VALL is returned.

Error handling

Errors are reported as specified in math_errhandling .

Domain error occurs if num is less than zero.

Pole error may occur if num is zero.

If the implementation supports IEEE floating-point arithmetic (IEC 60559),

• If the argument is ±0, -∞ is returned and FE_DIVBYZERO is raised.
• If the argument is 1, +0 is returned.
• If the argument is negative, NaN is returned and FE_INVALID is raised.
• If the argument is +∞, +∞ is returned.
• If the argument is NaN, NaN is returned.

Notes

The additional overloads are not required to be provided exactly as (A) . They only need to be sufficient to ensure that for their argument num of integer type, std :: log10 ( num ) has the same effect as std :: log10 ( static_cast < double > ( num ) ) .

Example

#include <cerrno>
#include <cfenv>
#include <cmath>
#include <cstring>
#include <iostream>
// #pragma STDC FENV_ACCESS ON
 
int main()
{
    std::cout << "log10(1000) = " << std::log10(1000) << '\n'
              << "log10(0.001) = " << std::log10(0.001) << '\n'
              << "base-5 logarithm of 125 = "
              << std::log10(125) / std::log10(5) << '\n';
 
    // special values
    std::cout << "log10(1) = " << std::log10(1) << '\n'
              << "log10(+Inf) = " << std::log10(INFINITY) << '\n';
 
    // error handling
    errno = 0;
    std::feclearexcept(FE_ALL_EXCEPT);
 
    std::cout << "log10(0) = " << std::log10(0) << '\n';
 
    if (errno == ERANGE)
        std::cout << "    errno == ERANGE: " << std::strerror(errno) << '\n';
    if (std::fetestexcept(FE_DIVBYZERO))
        std::cout << "    FE_DIVBYZERO raised\n";
}

log10(1000) = 3
log10(0.001) = -3
base-5 logarithm of 125 = 3
log10(1) = 0
log10(+Inf) = inf
log10(0) = -inf
    errno == ERANGE: Numerical result out of range
    FE_DIVBYZERO raised
