Defined in header <math.h>
float       log10f( float arg );	(1)	(since C99)
double      log10( double arg );	(2)
long double log10l( long double arg );	(3)	(since C99)
Defined in header <tgmath.h>
#define log10( arg )	(4)	(since C99)

1-3) Computes the common (base-10) logarithm of arg.

4) Type-generic macro: If arg has type long double, log10l is called. Otherwise, if arg has integer type or the type double, log10 is called. Otherwise, log10f is called.

Parameters

arg

-

floating point value

Return value

If no errors occur, the common (base-10) logarithm of arg (log
10(arg) or lg(arg)) is returned.

If a domain error occurs, an implementation-defined value is returned (NaN where supported).

If a pole error occurs, -HUGE_VAL, -HUGE_VALF, or -HUGE_VALL is returned.

Error handling

Errors are reported as specified in math_errhandling.

Domain error occurs if arg is less than zero.

Pole error may occur if arg is zero.

If the implementation supports IEEE floating-point arithmetic (IEC 60559),

• If the argument is ±0, -∞ is returned and FE_DIVBYZERO is raised.
• If the argument is 1, +0 is returned
• If the argument is negative, NaN is returned and FE_INVALID is raised.
• If the argument is +∞, +∞ is returned
• If the argument is NaN, NaN is returned
