The Math.log() Method in Java Math is used to find out any number's Logarithmic Value. This method returns a double value as a parameter of the natural logarithm (base e).

Syntax

public static double log(double x)

Parameters

x= This parameter is used for a value entered by user

Returns

It is used to returns the value In a, the natural logarithm of a.

        double a = 12.5;  
        System.out.println(Math.log(a));  
    }  
}
