Logarithm

Overview

The Logarithm Node.

Logarithm calculates the logarithm of a number in a chosen base.

This is the inverse function of the Power Node. Rather than taking a base value, raising it to the power of an exponent, and returning the power, it takes the base value, along with the power, and returns the exponent.

Attributes

Inputs

Attribute	Type	Description
Base	Drop-down	A selection of common bases used in logarithm functions, which are: 2 (binary), e (natural), or 10 (common), as well as a Custom option, for defining a custom base value.

Default

Attribute	Type	Description
Base Value (Made available by the Base Attribute set to Custom)	Float	A custom base value.

Inputs

Input	Type	Description
Pulse Input (►)	Pulse	A standard input Pulse, to trigger the execution of the Node.
Input	Float	The number whose logarithm you wish to calculate.

Outputs

Output	Type	Description
Pulse Output (►)	Pulse	A standard output Pulse, to move onto the next Node along the Logic Branch, once this Node has finished its execution.
Exponent	Float	The logarithm of Input in the chosen base.
