Topic link iconTransact-SQL Syntax Conventions

Syntax

LOG (float_expression )

Arguments

  • float_expression
    Is an expression of type float or of a type that can be implicitly converted to float.

Return Types

float

Remarks

The constant e (2.71828182845905…) is the base of natural logarithms.

The base of natural logarithms is the constant e (2.71828182845905…). LOG ( e ) = 1.0.

The natural logarithm of the exponential of a number is the number itself: LOG( EXP( n ) ) = n. And the exponential of the natural logarithm of a number is the number itself: EXP( LOG( n ) ) = n.

Examples

A. Calculating the logarithm for a number.

The following example calculates the LOG for the specified float expression.

DECLARE @var float;
SET @var = 10;
SELECT 'The LOG of the variable is: ' + CONVERT(varchar, LOG(@var));
GO

Here is the result set.

-------------------------------------
The LOG of the variable is: 2.30259
