Column

logarithm of the given value in Base 10.

Examples

Example 1: Compute the logarithm in Base 10

>>> from pyspark.sql import functions as sf
>>> df = spark.createDataFrame([(1,), (10,), (100,)], ["value"])
>>> df.select("*", sf.log10(df.value)).show()
+-----+------------+
|value|LOG10(value)|
+-----+------------+
|    1|         0.0|
|   10|         1.0|
|  100|         2.0|
+-----+------------+

Example 2: Compute the logarithm in Base 10 of invalid values

>>> from pyspark.sql import functions as sf
>>> spark.sql(
...     "SELECT * FROM VALUES (-1), (0), (FLOAT('NAN')), (NULL) AS TAB(value)"
... ).select("*", sf.log10("value")).show()
+-----+------------+
|value|LOG10(value)|
+-----+------------+
| -1.0|        NULL|
|  0.0|        NULL|
|  NaN|         NaN|
| NULL|        NULL|
