Taking Logarithms


puts Math.log(1)                                    # => 0.0
puts Math.log(Math::E)                              # => 1.0
puts Math.log(10)                                   # => 2.30258509299405
puts Math::E ** Math.log(25)                        # => 25.0

puts Math.log10(1)                                  # => 0.0
puts Math.log10(10)                                 # => 1.0
puts Math.log10(10.1)                               # => 1.00432137378264
puts Math.log10(1000)                               # => 3.0
puts 10 ** Math.log10(25)                           # => 25.0
