Computes the natural logarithm of 1 plus the specified value.

Syntax

double log1p(  
   double x  
);  
  
float log1p(  
   float x  
); //C++ only  
  
long double log1p(  
   long double x  
); //C++ only  
  
float log1pf(  
   float x  
);  
  
long double log1pl(  
   long double x  
);  
  

Parameters

x
The floating-point argument.

Return Value

If successful, returns the natural (base-e) log of (x+1).

Otherwise, may return one of the following values:

Input Result SEH exception errno
+inf +inf
Denormals Same as input UNDERFLOW
±0 Same as input
-1 -inf DIVBYZERO ERANGE
< -1 nan INVALID EDOM
-inf nan INVALID EDOM
±SNaN Same as input INVALID
±QNaN, indefinite Same as input

The errno value is set to ERANGE if x = -1. The errno value is set to EDOM if x < −1.

Remarks

The log1p functions may be more accurate than using log(x+1) when x is near 0.

Because C++ allows overloading, you can call overloads of log1p that take and return float and long double types. In a C program, log1p always takes and returns a double.

If x is a natural number, this function returns the logarithm of the factorial of (x-1).
