Just fantastically cool!  Just wondering, should the derivative of d/dx log(x) = x^-1 in 3.1 read d/dx ln(x)? Or is log(x) always assumed to be log<small>''e''</small>(x) unless specified or something? [[User:DouglasA|DouglasA]] 11:50, 4 January 2010 (EST)

:Not to butt in ahead of JacobB, but it was pretty much assumed in the calc courses I've taken.  It might be good to add a note to that effect, though. --[[User:EvanW|EvanW]] 11:52, 4 January 2010 (EST)
