Characteristics of Logarithm Functions


  • The logarithm function is not defined for negative values of x.
  • The function approaches to minus infinity for x -> 0.
  • The function shows a single zero point at x = 1.
  • x < 1 result in negative values.
  • The slope of the function decreases monotonously.
