logFunction in std::math

Compute the logarithm of the number with respect to an arbitrary base.

log(
  @input: number,
  base: number(_),
): number

The result might not be correctly rounded owing to implementation details; log2 can produce more accurate results for base 2, and log10 can produce more accurate results for base 10.

Arguments

NameTypeDescriptionRequired
inputnumberThe number to compute the logarithm of.Yes
basenumber(_)The base of the logarithm.Yes

Returns

number - A number

Examples

exampleSketch = startSketchOn(XZ)
  |> startProfile(at = [0, 0])
  |> line(end = [log(100, base = 5), 0])
  |> line(end = [5, 8])
  |> line(end = [-10, 0])
  |> close()

example = extrude(exampleSketch, length = 5)
