[Ihsan Kehribar] points out a clever trick you can use to quickly and efficiently compute the logarithm of a 32-bit integer. The technique relies on the CLZ instruction which counts the number of ...

Logarithms come in the form \({\log _a}x\). We say this as 'log to the base \(a\) of \(x\). But what does \({\log _a}x\) mean? The answer is \(4\) because \({2^4 ...

Now that you know what \({\log _a}x\) means, you should know and be able to use the following results, known as the laws of logarithms.

From trigonometry to calculus and vectors to geometry, few students take A-level mathematics thinking it's going to be an easy subject. But for Daily Mail readers who know their sequences from their ...

Logarithms are everywhere in mathematics and derived fields, but we rarely think about how trigonometric functions, exponentials, square roots and others are calculated after we punch the numbers into ...
