Logarithms
What is Logarithms ?
Logarithms are mathematical functions that provide a way to solve exponential equations and convert between exponential and logarithmic forms. They represent the inverse of exponentiation and help determine the exponent needed to obtain a given number using a specific base. Logarithms have properties such as the product, quotient, and power rules, making them useful in various fields including finance, physics, engineering, and computer science. They simplify calculations, solve exponential equations, and allow for the analysis of exponential growth or decay. Logarithms are essential for advanced mathematics and data interpretation.
