Cologarithm

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

In mathematics, the base-b cologarithm, sometimes shortened to colog, of a number is the base-b logarithm of the reciprocal of the number. It is equal to the negative base-b logarithm of the number.

\operatorname{colog}_b\ x = \log_b \left(\frac{1}{x} \right) = \log_b 1-\log_b x = -\log_b x = \log_{1/b} x.\,
