C# Math.Log10() – Examples

In this tutorial, we will learn about the C# Math.Log10() method, and learn how to use this method to compute base 10 logarithm of a specified number, with the help of examples.

Log10(Double d)

Math.Log10(d) returns the base 10 logarithm of a specified number d.

Syntax

The syntax of Log10() method is

Math.Log10(Double d)

where

ParameterDescription
dThe double value, whose base 10 logarithm is to be found.

Return Value

The method returns value of type double.

Example 1 – Log10(d)

In this example, we will find the base 10 logarithm of the following numbers.

  • Positive Value
  • Negative Value
  • Positive Infinity
  • Negative Infinity
  • Zero

C# Program

using System;
 
class Example {
    static void Main(string[] args) {
        Double d, result;
 
        d = 8;
        result = Math.Log10(d);
        Console.WriteLine($"Log({d}) = {result}");
 
        d = -7;
        result = Math.Log10(d);
        Console.WriteLine($"Log({d}) = {result}");
 
        d = Double.PositiveInfinity;
        result = Math.Log10(d);
        Console.WriteLine($"Log({d}) = {result}");
 
        d = Double.NegativeInfinity;
        result = Math.Log10(d);
        Console.WriteLine($"Log({d}) = {result}");
 
        d = 0;
        result = Math.Log10(d);
        Console.WriteLine($"Log({d}) = {result}");
    }
}

Output

Log(8) = 0.903089986991944
Log(-7) = NaN
Log(∞) = ∞
Log(-∞) = NaN
Log(0) = -∞

Conclusion

In this C# Tutorial, we have learnt the syntax of C# Math.Log10() method, and also learnt how to use this method, with the help of C# example programs.
