log1p()

(PHP 4 >= 4.1.0, PHP 5, PHP 7)

返回 log(1 + number)，甚至当 number 的值接近零也能计算出准确结果

说明

log1p()返回 log(1 +$number)，甚至当$number的值接近零也能计算出准确结果。log()might only return log(1) in this case due to lack of precision.

参数

要处理的参数

返回值

log(1 +$number)

Note that the benefit of this function for small argument values is lost if PHP is compiled against a C library that that not have builtin support for the log1p() function.
In this case, log1p() will be compiled by using log() instead, and the precision of the result will be identical to log(1), i.e. it will always be 0 for small numbers.
Sample log1p(1.0e-20):
- returns 0.0 if log1p() is approximated by using log()
- returns something very near from 1.0e-20, if log1p() is supported by the underlying C library.
One way to support log1p() correctly on any platform, so that the magnitude of the expected result is respected:
function log1p($x) {
return ($x>-1.0e-8 && $x
