C math log10() function

C math log10() function is used to return the common logarithm (base-10 logarithm) of any given input argument x. This function takes a single argument and returns a value of type float. This function is defined in <math.h> header file.

Syntax:
double log10(double x)

Parameter Values

x−It is the floating point value.

Here is an example of log10() function:

#include <stdio.h>
#include <math.h>
int main () 
{
double x, ret;
x = 100;
/* finding value of log1010000 */
ret = log10(x);
printf("log10(%lf) = %lf\n", x, ret);
return(0);
}

Output:
log10(100.000000) = 2.000000
Example-2

#include <stdio.h>
#include <math.h>
int main () 
{
double x, ret;
x = 50;
/* finding value of log1010000 */
ret = log10(x);
printf("log10(%lf) = %lf\n", x, ret);
return(0);
}

Output:
log10(50.000000) = 1.698970
