LOG   
 
PURPOSE: Returns the common logarithm of the argument. 
FORMAT: 
The parenthesis enclosing the argument can be omitted when the argument is a 
numeric value or variable. 
EXAMPLE:  LOG (7922) 
PARAMETERS:  argument must be within the ]10
-100
 , 10
100
[ range. 
EXPLANATION: 
1.  The returned value is in the ]-100 , +100[ range. 
SEE: LN 
 
LN   
 
PURPOSE: Returns the natural logarithm of the parameter 
FORMAT: 
The parenthesis enclosing the argument can be omitted when the argument is a 
numeric value or variable. 
EXAMPLE:  LN (1965) 
PARAMETERS:  argument must be within the ]10
-100
 , 10
100
[ range. 
EXPLANATION: 
1.  The returned value is in the [-230.2585092 , +230.2585092] range. 
2.  LN is the inverse function of EXP: 
For any positive argument, EXP(LN(argument)) # argument.

NCR   
 
PURPOSE: Returns the combination nCr for the values of n and r. 
FORMAT: 
EXAMPLE:  X = NCR(70,35) 
PARAMETERS: n value and r value should follow: 0 ≤ r ≤ n < 10
10
 
EXPLANATION: 
1.  Returns the permutation: nCr = n! / (r! (n-r)! ) 
2.  A fractional value as either n or r generates an error.
