Go Log10()

The Log10() function in the Go programming language calculates the base-10 logarithm of a given number. It returns the logarithm value as a floating-point number. The math package must be imported to use this function.

Syntax

result := Log10(x)

Log10() accepts an argument of type float64 and returns a value of type float64.

Note these special cases:

• If x is negative or Nan, the function will return NaN (not-a-number).
• If x is zero, the result will be -Inf.
• If x is +Inf, the result will be +Inf.

Example

The example below demonstrates the basic use of Log10().

package main

import (
  "fmt"
  "math"
)

func main() {
  x := 10.0
  result := math.Log10(x)
  fmt.Printf("Log10(%f) = %f\n", x, result)
}
