Definitions and meanings of "Logarithmic"
What do we mean by logarithmic?
Of, or relating to logarithms.
(MATHEMATICS) a function of numbers that are the root of a base. For example, log(base 2) means a function of numbers that are the numbered roots of 2. The log(base 2) of 2 is 1, meaning 2 raised to the power of 1 is 2 (2^1 = 2); log(2) of 4 is 2, and so on. The idea here is that any number can be expressed as 2 raised to some power; better still, if you do math with the logs of a number rather than the numbers themselves, you can find useful patterns. For example, if you are graphing population growth, and you just plot the raw number of people over time, you aren't going to notice anything in particular. If you plot the log of population, you can see that, while population is growing, the rate of growth is falling. Usually, if you are doing statistical research with numbers that always have to be positive (like population, death tolls from diseases, etc.), you need to use logarithms for the numerical values in order to represent a confidence interval. Logs usually have a base of e or 10. Logs with a base of e are called natural logs. Urban Dictionary
Mathmatical process by which a shit/corn ratio is aquired. it is devised from taking the amount of corn in your shit and dividing it by the total mass of your log, including water content and multiplying by 100. is expressed in units called nibblets. my corn ratio is 22 niblets some days. Urban Dictionary
A "Todd-ism" - Todd says "a logarithm" (log-ar-ithm, something that a rocket scientist uses) when he means "algorithm" (Al-Gore-ithm, something that a computer scientist uses and Al Gore abuses) Urban Dictionary
Mathematical process by which an exponent is acquired Urban Dictionary
A process of first aid used to help someone who has tripped over a log. Urban Dictionary
MATHEMATICS: The exponent, or power, to which 10 has to be raised to express any positive real number. Logarithm is derived from Greek logos "reckoning, ratio," and arithmos "number." Urban Dictionary
The most crappy (C-RRRR-AAAA-P-EEEE) subject in the world. Logarithms tell how many times a number x must be divided by the base b to get 1, and hence can be considered an inverse of exponentiation. Yeah, whatever! Urban Dictionary
When our primitive instinct makes us treat the comparison of large numbers as logarithmic rather than linear—for instance, we feel like the gap between a trillion and a billion is the same as that between a billion and a million, because both are a thousand times bigger, when the jump to a trillion is really much bigger. Urban Dictionary
Easy but ugly. Much like some girls I know. It's an important part of Calculus 1, used for taking the derivative of functions with "x" in the exponent. Urban Dictionary
The logarithmic G scale is used to measure the overall influence, and the ability to influence, of an individual in society. The influence is measured as an absolute value of influence, that is, it doesn't differentiate between positive or negative influence. The 1G base is used to describe any accomplished individual such as a doctor, lawyer, police captain, army major, university professor, capo. Urban Dictionary
