> Evaluate the [natural logarithm][natural-logarithm].


<!-- <usage> -->
## Usage

``` javascript
var ln = require( '@stdlib/math/base/special/ln' );
```

#### ln( x )

Evaluates the [natural logarithm][natural-logarithm].

``` javascript
var v = ln( 4.0 );
// returns ~1.386

v = ln( 0.0 );
// returns -infinity

v = ln( Number.POSITIVE_INFINITY );
// returns +infinity

v = ln( NaN );
// returns NaN
```

For negative numbers, the [natural logarithm][natural-logarithm] is __not__ defined.

``` javascript
var v = ln( -4.0 );
// returns NaN
```
<!-- </usage> -->


<!-- <examples> -->
## Examples

``` javascript
var round = require( '@stdlib/math/base/special/round' );
var ln = require( '@stdlib/math/base/special/ln' );

var x;
var i;

for ( i = 0; i < 100; i++ ) {
	x = round( Math.random() * 100.0 );
	console.log( 'ln(%d) = %d', x, ln( x ) );
}
```
