+ logaddexp(x1, x2, out=None)
+ Calculates ``log(exp(x1) + exp(x2))``. This function is useful in
+ statistics where the calculated probabilities of events may be so small
+ as to exceed the range of normal floating point numbers. In such cases
+ the logarithm of the calculated probability is stored. This function
+ allows adding probabilities stored in such a fashion.
+ Parameters
+ ----------
+ x1, x2 : ndarray or scalar
+ Input values.
+ out : ndarray, None, or tuple of ndarray and None, optional
+ A location into which the result is stored. If provided, it must have
+ a shape and dtype as the expected output. If not provided or `None`,
+ a freshly-allocated array is returned.
+ Returns
+ -------
+ result : ndarray or scalar
+ Logarithm of ``exp(x1) + exp(x2)``.
+ This is a scalar if both `x1` and `x2` are scalars.
+ See Also
+ --------
+ logaddexp2: Logarithm of the sum of exponentiations of inputs in base 2.
