16.3 Natural Logarithm Operation
LN(_E)
These functions output the natural logarithm operation result of an input value.
â– Descriptions, types, and data types
â– Operation processing
• These functions calculate the logarithm whose base is "e" of the REAL type data input to (s), and output from (d).
• These functions are expressed as follows when the input value is "A" and the output operation result is "B".
• In the natural logarithm operation, the base "e" is set to "2.71828".
â– Operation result
1. Function without EN/ENO
The following table lists the operation results.
2. Function with EN/ENO
The following table lists the execution conditions and operation results.
*1 When FALSE is output from ENO, data output from (d) is undefined. In that case, modify a program so that the data output from (d) is
not used.
