Natural Logarithm
Example \( \log(1.2) = \log(1 + 0.2) \approx 0.182321557 \) Initialisation DSP 9 -1 STO K 0.2 ENTER ENTER ENTER 11 STO M ÷ Loop 1 K M+ ÷ x<>y - × Result 0.018181818 0.016363636 0.018949495 0.021210101 0.024329408 0.028467452 0.034306510 0.043138698 0.058038927 0.088392215 0.182321557 Explanation \( \begin{aligned} \log(1+x) &= x-{\frac {x^{2}}{2}}+{\frac {x^{3}}{3}} - \cdots \\ &= x \cdot \left(\frac{1}{1} - x \cdot \left(\frac{1}{2} - x \cdot \left(\frac{1}{3} - \cdots \right) \right) \right) \end{aligned} \) Python Program Code: x = 0.2 References |
