numpy.log10(x, /, out=None, *, where=True, casting='same_kind', order='K', dtype=None, subok=True[, signature, extobj]) = <ufunc 'log10'>
Return the base 10 logarithm of the input array, element-wise.
Parameters: |
x : array_like Input values. out : ndarray, None, or tuple of ndarray and None, optional A location into which the result is stored. If provided, it must have a shape that the inputs broadcast to. If not provided or where : array_like, optional Values of True indicate to calculate the ufunc at that position, values of False indicate to leave the value in the output alone. **kwargs For other keyword-only arguments, see the ufunc docs. |

Returns: |
y : ndarray The logarithm to the base 10 of |

Logarithm is a multivalued function: for each x
there is an infinite number of z
such that 10**z = x
. The convention is to return the z
whose imaginary part lies in [-pi, pi]
.
For real-valued input data types, log10
always returns real output. For each value that cannot be expressed as a real number or infinity, it yields nan
and sets the invalid
floating point error flag.
For complex-valued input, log10
is a complex analytical function that has a branch cut [-inf, 0]
and is continuous from above on it. log10
handles the floating-point negative zero as an infinitesimal negative number, conforming to the C99 standard.
