|
Compute the logarithm of the number with respect to an arbitrary base.
|
|
|
|
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.
|
|
|
|
```js
|
|
log(
|
|
num: number,
|
|
base: number,
|
|
): number
|
|
```
