To find out the names of function in the math module without checking the
docs, do
>>> dir(math) #same for any other module
To get more info, do

It's always a good idea, especially when answering a beginner's

Hey everyone! I'm a math student working on a short script involving
logs. I have a function on my scientific calculator, and was wondering

I've searched around a bit and haven't been able to find anything.
Thanks!
