ln
Description
Computes the natural logarithm (base e) of a number.
Syntax
Like many functions in DataPrime, ln
supports two notations, function and method notation. These interchangeable forms allow flexibility in how you structure expressions.
Arguments
Name | Type | Required | Description |
---|---|---|---|
number | number | true | The number whose natural logarithm will be computed |
Example
Use case: Model exponential growth with Euler's number and natural logarithm
Calculate the growth rate from observed data, then project future values using e
and ln
.
Output
