Abstract

In this paper, an approximation formula for logarithm is introduced. This formula gives close approximation to the actual logarithm value, provided the input is greater than one and the base is greater than or equal to two. Certain examples have been presented in this paper for various numbers and bases, while at the same time comparison with actual logarithm value is also made.
