Notes

Complex number natural logarithm is evaluated according to the following formula: Ln(Z) = (Ln(r); theta), where Z = (r; theta). Please note that the calculation is performed using polar coordinates and all the transformations between rectangular and polar coordinates are performed automatically. For creating a new resulting complex number object instead of changing the value of the current one use CNewLn method.
