  2. Login - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Login

    Computer systems keep a log of users' access to the system. The term "log" comes from the chip log which was historically used to record distance traveled at sea and was recorded in a ship's log or logbook. To sign in connotes the same idea but is based on the analogy of manually signing a log book or visitor's book.

  3. Web log analysis software - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Web_log_analysis_software

    Web log analysis software (also called a web log analyzer) is a kind of web analytics software that parses a server log file from a web server, and based on the values contained in the log file, derives indicators about when, how, and by whom a web server is visited. Reports are usually generated immediately, but data extracted from the log ...

    Napier then calculated the products of these numbers with 10 7 (1 − 10 −5) L for L from 1 to 50, and did similarly with 0.9998 ≈ (1 − 10 −5) 20 and 0.9 ≈ 0.995 20. [32] These computations, which occupied 20 years, allowed him to give, for any number N from 5 to 10 million, the number L that solves the equation

  5. Log–log plot - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Loglog_plot

    A log–log plot of y = x (blue), y = x 2 (green), and y = x 3 (red). Note the logarithmic scale markings on each of the axes, and that the log x and log y axes (where the logarithms are 0) are where x and y themselves are 1. Comparison of linear, concave, and convex functions when plotted using a linear scale (left) or a log scale (right).

  6. Extended Log Format - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Extended_Log_Format

    Extended Log Format (ELF) is a standardized text file format that is used by web servers when generating log files. In comparison to the Common Log Format (CLF), ELF provides more information and flexibility.

  7. Keystroke logging - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Keystroke_logging

    Keystroke logging, often referred to as keylogging or keyboard capturing, is the action of recording (logging) the keys struck on a keyboard, [1] [2] typically covertly, so that a person using the keyboard is unaware that their actions are being monitored.

  8. Iterated logarithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Iterated_logarithm

    The zig-zagging entails starting from the point (n, 0) and iteratively moving to (n, log b (n) ), to (0, log b (n) ), to (log b (n), 0 ). In computer science , the iterated logarithm of n {\displaystyle n} , written log * n {\displaystyle n} (usually read " log star "), is the number of times the logarithm function must be iteratively applied ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Web_beacon

    Web beacons embedded in emails have greater privacy implications than beacons embedded in web pages. Through the use of an embedded beacon, the sender of an email – or even a third party – can record the same sort of information as an advertiser on a website, namely the time that the email was read, the IP address of the computer that was used to read the email (or the IP address of the ...
