The “log10” Function in R

• Package: Base R (No specific package, it’s a built-in function)

• Purpose: To compute the base-10 logarithm of a numeric vector.

• General Class: Mathematical Computation

• Required Argument(s):

• x: A numeric vector for which the base-10 logarithm is to be computed.

• Notable Optional Arguments:

• None

• Example:

• # Example usage
  my_vector <- c(1, 10, 100, 1000)
  
  # Compute the base-10 logarithm
  log10_values <- log10(my_vector)
  
  print(log10_values)

• In this example, log10 is a built-in function in base R, and it is used to compute the base-10 logarithm of a numeric vector. The x argument is the required numeric vector for which the logarithm is calculated. There are no notable optional arguments for this function. The result is a numeric vector where each element represents the base-10 logarithm of the corresponding element in the input vector.
