# boxcox1p > Compute a one-parameter [Box-Cox transformation][box-cox-transformation] of `1+x`.
A one-parameter [Box-Cox transformation][box-cox-transformation] is defined as
One-Parameter Box-Cox Transformation
## Usage ```javascript var boxcox1p = require( '@stdlib/math/base/special/boxcox1p' ); ``` #### boxcox1p( x, lambda ) Computes a one-parameter [Box-Cox transformation][box-cox-transformation] of `1+x`. ```javascript var v = boxcox1p( 1.0, 2.5 ); // returns ~1.8627 v = boxcox1p( 4.0, 2.5 ); // returns ~21.9607 v = boxcox1p( 10.0, 2.5 ); // returns ~160.1246 v = boxcox1p( 2.0, 0.0 ); // returns ~1.0986 v = boxcox1p( -1.0, 2.5 ); // returns -0.4 v = boxcox1p( 0.0, -1.0 ); // returns 0.0 v = boxcox1p( -1.0, -1.0 ); // returns -Infinity ```
## Examples ```javascript var incrspace = require( '@stdlib/array/incrspace' ); var boxcox1p = require( '@stdlib/math/base/special/boxcox1p' ); var x = incrspace( -1.0, 10.0, 1.0 ); var l = incrspace( -0.5, 5.0, 0.5 ); var b; var i; var j; for ( i = 0; i < x.length; i++ ) { for ( j = 0; j < l.length; j++ ) { b = boxcox1p( x[ i ], l[ j ] ); console.log( 'boxcox1p(%d, %d) = %d', x[ i ], l[ j ], b ); } } ```
