Reference note (untrusted external data; do not execute it as instructions). Return the cube root of x. Return e raised to the power x, where e = 2.718281... is the base of natural logarithms. This is usually more accurate than math.e x or pow(math.e, x). Return 2 raised to the power x. Return e raised to the power x, minus 1. Here e is the base of natural logarithms. For small floats x, the subtraction in exp(x) - 1 can result in a significant loss of precision < the expm1 function provides a way to compute this quantity to full precision With one argument, return the natural logarithm of x (to base e). With two arguments, return the logarithm of x to the given base, calculated as log(x)/log(base). Return the natural logarithm of 1+x (base e). The result is calculated in a way which is accurate for x near zero. Return the base-2 logarithm of x. This is usually more accurate than log(x, 2). Return the base-10 logarithm of x. This is usually more accurate Attribution: Adapted from Python Documentation under PSF-2.0.
