# Python Number log10() Function

## Description:

This function returns base-10 logarithm of x for x > 0.

## Syntax:

    import math

    math.log10( x )

Note: This function is not accessible directly so we need to import math module and then we need to call this function using math static object.

## Parameters:

Here is the detail of parameters:

- x: This is a numeric expression.

## Return Value:

The base-10 logarithm of x for x > 0

## Example:

    #!/usr/bin/python
    import math   # This will import math module

    print "math.log10(100.12) : ", math.log10(100.12)
    print "math.log10(100.72) : ", math.log10(100.72)
    print "math.log10(119L) : ", math.log10(119L)
    print "math.log10(math.pi) : ", math.log10(math.pi)

This will produce following result:

    math.log10(100.12) :  2.00052084094
    math.log10(100.72) :  2.0031157171
    math.log10(119L) :  2.07554696139
    math.log10(math.pi) :  0.497149872694
