What is so special about the natural logarithm? What is it good for?
I understand that log2
is useful for informatics, e.g. to determine how many bits I need to represent a given number. I understand that log10
is useful to determine the order of magnitude of numbers.
However, I'm having trouble understanding what makes ln
interesting. It seems like it's used a lot, but to me it just looks like a logarithm with a very weird base. What are the uses for this logarithm?
