As a consequence, log b (x) diverges to infinity (gets bigger than any given number) if x grows to infinity, provided that b is greater than one. In that case, log b (x) is an increasing function. For b < 1, log b (x) tends to minus infinity instead. When x approaches zero, log b x goes to minus infinity for b > 1 (plus infinity for b < 1 ...
