Shuxiong Ye commented on PHOENIX-2019:
--------------------------------------

The patch above will firstly turn input to double type, and using 
java.lang.Math related functions to get the result.
Note that, for both types BigDecimal and long, when type cast occurs from these 
two types to double, there will be a loss of precision.
java.lang.Math is only support for double.

> Implement Build-in math function ln and log

> Implement math build-in function, ln and log. Example show as below:
> ln(dp)        natural logarithm       ln(2.0) 0.693147180559945
> log(dp)       base 10 logarithm       log(100.0)      2
> log(b, x)     numeric logarithm to base b     log(2.0, 64.0)  6.0000000000
