The formula to calculate a negative log is:
\[ x = \log_b \left(\frac{1}{a}\right) \]
Where:
A negative log is defined as the number of times required that 1 must be divided by the base in order to achieve the log number. For example, -Log2(0.5) = 1, since \( 1 / 2 = 0.5 \).
Let's assume the following values:
Step 1: Calculate the Negative Log:
\[ x = \log_2 \left(\frac{1}{0.5}\right) = \log_2 (2) = 1 \]
The negative log is 1.
