I am plotting my data (x,y) and want to show the x-axis in logscale. Because there are some negative values in x, the log10 can not be computed for all. This results in nans which are simply omitte...

Today I needed a cheap log10() function, of which I only used the int part. Assuming the result is floored, so the log10() of 999 would be 2. Would it be beneficial writing a function myself? And i...

In python, how can you check if a number n is an exact power of base b? Note: it needs to be generalized to any base which is given as a parameter. Here is what I got: Assume n and base are inte...

It seems that the set_xticks is not working in log scale: from matplotlib import pyplot as plt fig1, ax1 = plt.subplots() ax1.plot([10, 100, 1000], [1,2,3]) ax1.set_xscale('log') ax1.set_xticks([2...

From the numpy documentation on logarithms, I have found functions to take the logarithm with base e, 2, and 10: import numpy as np np.log(np.e**3) #3.0 np.log2(2**3) #3.0 np.log10(10**3) #3.0 How...

I need to accurately calculate where a and b are both integers. If I simply use typical change of base formula with floating point math functions I wind up with errors due to rounding error.
