By definition, a logarithm is an aritmetic function that allows you to find the exponent also known as power to which a base must be raised to yield a given number.
In many Algorithms, when analyzing the growth rate of the runtime of a specific implementation, is very common to find rates that can be expressed in logarithmic terms, usually by using Big O notation, you will find things like O(Log(n)) or O((n)Log(n)).
Beyond that, I'm very curious about what a Logarithm is telling you about something.
Thi section is dedicated to them, I will keep adding as much as I can.
