Fonction log10 - module numpy.emath

Signature de la fonction log10

def log10(x) 

Description

log10.__doc__

    Compute the logarithm base 10 of `x`.

    Return the "principal value" (for a description of this, see
    `numpy.log10`) of :math:`log_{10}(x)`. For real `x > 0`, this
    is a real number (``log10(0)`` returns ``-inf`` and ``log10(np.inf)``
    returns ``inf``). Otherwise, the complex principle value is returned.

    Parameters
    ----------
    x : array_like or scalar
       The value(s) whose log base 10 is (are) required.

    Returns
    -------
    out : ndarray or scalar
       The log base 10 of the `x` value(s). If `x` was a scalar, so is `out`,
       otherwise an array object is returned.

    See Also
    --------
    numpy.log10

    Notes
    -----
    For a log10() that returns ``NAN`` when real `x < 0`, use `numpy.log10`
    (note, however, that otherwise `numpy.log10` and this `log10` are
    identical, i.e., both return ``-inf`` for `x = 0`, ``inf`` for `x = inf`,
    and, notably, the complex principle value if ``x.imag != 0``).

    Examples
    --------

    (We set the printing precision so the example can be auto-tested)

    >>> np.set_printoptions(precision=4)

    >>> np.emath.log10(10**1)
    1.0

    >>> np.emath.log10([-10**1, -10**2, 10**2])
    array([1.+1.3644j, 2.+1.3644j, 2.+0.j    ])
