is there an "antilog" function in LV?

[mike72903]

Excuse my weak math.  I know what an antilog is and how to use a calculators 'inv' key before the log key to find an antilog but how do I do this in LV8?  I don't find an antilog function or statement in mathscript nor does using inv(log10(x)) work.  I need to calculate some sound corrections using the formula

L' = L - P + 10 log {antilog [log (antilog {P/10}  -1) +B] +1

Thanks, Mike

I think antilog10(x) just 10^x.

The inverse of log is 'raised to the power.'

Indeed, antilog is 10^x. This function is in the Mathematics->Elementary->Exponential palette.

Isn't antilog x the same as 10^x?

Okay, I got it.  Told you I had a weak math backgound.  Thanks to all

Yeah, that's the trouble with the internet and time. With everybody talking at the same time you don't always see that somebody else is saying the same thing right behind you or in front of you!
