Defined in header <cmath>

float       log1p( float arg );
(since C++11)
double      log1p( double arg );
(since C++11)
long double log1p( long double arg );
(since C++11)
double      log1p( Integral arg );
(since C++11)

Computes the natural (base e) logarithm of 1+arg. This function is more precise than the expression std::log(1+arg) if arg is close to zero.

[edit] Parameters

arg - floating point value

[edit] Return value

ln(1+arg)

Domain error occurs if arg is negative. NAN is returned in that case.

Range error occurs if arg is 0. -HUGE_VAL is returned in that case.
