LOG10(3P) POSIX Programmer's Manual LOG10(3P)
This manual page is part of the POSIX Programmer's Manual. The Linux
implementation of this interface may differ (consult the
corresponding Linux manual page for details of Linux behavior), or
the interface may not be implemented on Linux.
log10, log10f, log10l — base 10 logarithm function
#include <math.h>
double log10(double x);
float log10f(float x);
long double log10l(long double x);
The functionality described on this reference page is aligned with
the ISO C standard. Any conflict between the requirements described
here and the ISO C standard is unintentional. This volume of
POSIX.1‐2008 defers to the ISO C standard.
These functions shall compute the base 10 logarithm of their argument
x, log10(x).
An application wishing to check for error situations should set errno
to zero and call feclearexcept(FE_ALL_EXCEPT) before calling these
functions. On return, if errno is non-zero or fetestexcept(FE_INVALID
| FE_DIVBYZERO | FE_OVERFLOW | FE_UNDERFLOW) is non-zero, an error
has occurred.
Upon successful completion, these functions shall return the base 10
logarithm of x.
If x is ±0, a pole error shall occur and log10(), log10f(), and
log10l() shall return −HUGE_VAL, −HUGE_VALF, and −HUGE_VALL,
respectively.
For finite values of x that are less than 0, or if x is −Inf, a
domain error shall occur, and either a NaN (if supported), or an
implementation-defined value shall be returned.
If x is NaN, a NaN shall be returned.
If x is 1, +0 shall be returned.
If x is +Inf, +Inf shall be returned.
These functions shall fail if:
Domain Error
The finite value of x is negative, or x is −Inf.
If the integer expression (math_errhandling & MATH_ERRNO)
is non-zero, then errno shall be set to [EDOM]. If the
integer expression (math_errhandling & MATH_ERREXCEPT) is
non-zero, then the invalid floating-point exception shall
be raised.
Pole Error The value of x is zero.
If the integer expression (math_errhandling & MATH_ERRNO)
is non-zero, then errno shall be set to [ERANGE]. If the
integer expression (math_errhandling & MATH_ERREXCEPT) is
non-zero, then the divide-by-zero floating-point
exception shall be raised.
The following sections are informative.
None.
On error, the expressions (math_errhandling & MATH_ERRNO) and
(math_errhandling & MATH_ERREXCEPT) are independent of each other,
but at least one of them must be non-zero.
None.
None.
