 ### Logarithms

+Logarithms are an incredibly useful transformation for dealing with data that ranges across multiple orders of magnitude and converting exponential growth to linear growth.
 In R, you have a choice of three logarithms: `log()` (the natural log, base e), `log2()` (base 2), and `log10()` (base 10).
 We recommend using `log2()` or `log10()`.
 `log2()` is easy to interpret because a difference of 1 on the log scale corresponds to doubling on the original scale and a difference of -1 corresponds to halving; whereas `log10()` is easy to back-transform because (e.g.) 3 is 10\^3 = 1000.
