math.log1p(x, base)
```
### Parameters
Parameter | Type | Description
--------- | ---- | -----------
`x` | number &#124; BigNumber &#124; Complex &#124; Array &#124; Matrix | Value for which to calculate the logarithm of `x+1`.
`base` | number &#124; BigNumber &#124; Complex | Optional base for the logarithm. If not provided, the natural logarithm of `x+1` is calculated. Default value: e.
### Returns
