DESCRIPTION

30       These functions return a value equivalent to
31
32           log (1 + x)
33
34       The result is computed in a way that is accurate even if the value of x
35       is near zero.
36

RETURN VALUE

38       On success, these functions return the natural logarithm of (1 + x).
39
40       If x is a NaN, a NaN is returned.
41
42       If x is positive infinity, positive infinity is returned.
43
44       If x is -1, a pole error occurs, and the  functions  return  -HUGE_VAL,
45       -HUGE_VALF, or -HUGE_VALL, respectively.
46
47       If  x is less than -1 (including negative infinity), a domain error oc‐
48       curs, and a NaN (not a number) is returned.
49

ERRORS

51       See math_error(7) for information on how to determine whether an  error
52       has occurred when calling these functions.
53
54       The following errors can occur:
55
56       Domain error: x is less than -1
57              errno  is set to EDOM (but see BUGS).  An invalid floating-point
58              exception (FE_INVALID) is raised.
59
60       Pole error: x is -1
61              errno is set to ERANGE (but see BUGS).  A divide-by-zero  float‐
62              ing-point exception (FE_DIVBYZERO) is raised.

BUGS

77       Before version 2.22, the glibc implementation did not set errno to EDOM
78       when a domain error occurred.
79
80       Before  version  2.22,  the  glibc  implementation did not set errno to
81       ERANGE when a range error occurred.
