log() function for complex number in C++

C++Server Side ProgrammingProgramming

In this article we will be discussing the working, syntax and examples of log() function in C++ STL.

What is the log() function?

log() function is an inbuilt function in C++ STL, which is defined in <complex> header file. log() returns complex natural logarithmic value of a complex value. The difference between the log() in math header file and log() of complex header file is that it is used to calculate the complex logarithmic where log() of math header file calculates normal logarithmic value.

Syntax

template<class T> complex<T> log(const complex<T>& x);

Parameters

This function accepts one parameter which is a complex value whose log we have to find.

Return value

The logarithmic value of x we want to calculate.

Example

Input: complex<double> C_number(-7.0, 1.0);
   log(C_number);
Output: log of (-7,1) is (1.95601,2.9997)

 Live Demo

#include <bits/stdc++.h>
using namespace std;
int main() {
   complex<double> C_number(-7.0, 1.0);
   cout<<"log of "<<C_number<<" is "<<log(C_number)<< endl;
   return 0;
}

Output

If we run the above code it will generate the following output −

log of (-7,1) is (1.95601,2.9997)

Example 

Live Demo

#include <bits/stdc++.h>
using namespace std;
int main() {
   complex<double> C_number(-4.0, -1.0);
   cout<<"log of "<< C_number<< " is "<<log(C_number);
   return 0;
}

Output

If we run the above code it will generate the following output −

log of (-4,-1) is (1.41661,-2.89661)
