The use of logarithms for ordinary calculations is rapidly extending, and within the last few years there have appeared many excellent tables.
Logarithm tables should be of as few figures as possible, provided that when used they give a result within the limits of allowable error; they should also be so arranged that a logarithm corresponding to a given number, or a number corresponding to a given logarithm, may be found quickly and with the least expenditure of mental effort.
