Yes! Somehow I must have made an entry error when I tried that before as I was getting something completely different!

Thank you.

What's wrong with log2()?



log2(16)

Isn't that exactly what you asked for?

Dear R-users,

I have a basic question about how to determine the antilog of a variable.

Say I have some number, x, which is a factor of 2 such that x = 2^y. I want to figure out what y is, i.e. I am looking for the antilog base 2 of x.

I have found log2 in the Reference Manual. But I am struggling how to get the antilog of that.

Any help will be appreciated!
