I have developed a user defined function for condensing logarithms into a single quantity expression. The function is as follows:

Define logcon(x)=ln(e^(x)) - where x is the logarithm to condense.

However, certain logarithms aren't condensed for one reason or another and I don't know why - I'm not math genius (just a computer science major). Does anybody know of a good solid way to generate condensed logarithms?

Hi kabronkline,

One reason that an answer may not come out as desired is the subtle adjustments that the TI OS makes to many types of answers, such as putting some variables in alphabetical order, displaying trigonometric expressions in terms of sine and cosine, etc. If you could supply some examples of situations where the function fails and what it should be returning, it would be much easier to help you narrow down the problem.

Hope this helps!
