A logarithm calculator computes log base 10, natural log (ln), log base 2, and any other base. Logarithms are the inverse of exponentiation.

अक्सर पूछे जाने वाले प्रश्न
What's the difference between log, ln, and log₁₀?
log (no base) = log₁₀. ln = natural log (base e ≈ 2.718). log₂ = binary logarithm.
When do I use logarithms?
Solving exponential equations, measuring scales (pH, Richter, decibels), growth/decay rates.
Why is log₁₀ of 1000 equal to 3?
10³ = 1000, so log₁₀(1000) = 3. Logarithm is the inverse of exponentiation.
