This has been done as the make target has been renamed in the same way, while a new target named params has been added.

.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
|
The following functions compute logarithms:
|
|
.Bl -bullet -offset 2n
|
|
.It
|
|
The
|
|
.Fn log
|
|
and
|
|
.Fn logf
|
|
functions return the natural logarithm.
|
|
.It
|
|
The
|
|
.Fn log10
|
|
and
|
|
.Fn log10f
|
|
functions return the base 10 logarithm.
|
|
.It
|
|
The
|
|
.Fn log1p
|
|
and
|
|
.Fn log1pf
|
|
functions return the natural logarithm of (1.0 +
|
|
.Fa x )
|
|
accurately even for very small values of
|
|
.Fa x .
|
|
.It
|
|
The
|
|
.Fn log2
|
|
and
|
|
.Fn log2f
|
|
functions return the base 2 logarithm.
|
|
.El
|
|
.Sh RETURN VALUES
|
|
Upon successful completion, the functions return the logarithm of
|
|
.Fa x
|
|
as descibed above.
|
|
Otherwise the following may occur:
|
|
.Bl -enum -offset indent
|
|
.It
|
|
If
|
|
.Fa x
|
|
is \*(Na, all functions return \*(Na.
|
|
.It
|
|
If
|
|
.Fa x
|
|
is positive infinity, all functions return
|
|
.Fa x .
|
|
If
|
|
.Fa x
|
|
is negative infinity, all functions return \*(Na.
|
|
.It
|
|
If
|
|
.Fa x
|
|
is +0.0 or -0.0, the
|
|
.Fn log ,
|
|
.Fn log10 ,
|
|
and
|
|
.Fn log2
|
|
families return either
|
|
.Dv -HUGE_VAL ,
|
|
.Dv -HUGE_VALF ,
|
|
or
|
|
.Dv -HUGE_VALL ,
|
|
whereas the
|
|
.Fn log1p
|
|
family returns
|
|
.Fa x .
|
|
.It
|
|
If
|
|
.Fa x
|
|
is +1.0, the
|
|
.Fn log ,
|
|
.Fn log10 ,
|
|
and
|
|
.Fn log2
|
|
families return +0.0.
|
|
If
|
|
.Fa x
|
|
is -1.0, the
|
|
.Fn log1p
|
|
family returns
|
|
.Dv -HUGE_VAL ,
|
|
.Dv -HUGE_VALF ,
|
|
or
|
|
.Dv -HUGE_VALL .
|
|
.El
|
|
.Pp
|
|
In addition, on a
|
|
.Tn VAX ,
|
|
.Va errno
|
|
is set to
|
|
.Er EDOM
|
|
and the reserved operand is returned
|
|
by
|
|
.Fn log
|
|
unless
|
|
.Fa x
|
|
\*[Gt] 0, by
|
|
.Fn log1p
|
|
unless
|
|
.Fa x
|
|
\*[Gt] \-1.
