Functions are structures that can be executed with arguments/parameters to run code. They can also return a value to the trigger that is executing the function. Note that local functions come before global functions execution
Examples:
function sayMessage(message: text):
broadcast {_message} # our message argument is available in '{_message}'
local function giveApple(amount: number) :: item:
return {_amount} of apple
function getPoints(p: player) returns number:
return {points::%{_p}%}
broadcast {_message} # our message argument is available in '{_message}'
local function giveApple(amount: number) :: item:
return {_amount} of apple
function getPoints(p: player) returns number:
return {points::%{_p}%}

command /ping:
permission: command.ping
permission message: {@no_permission}
trigger:
message "Pong!"
command /pong:
permission: command.pong
permission message: {@no_permission}
trigger:
message "Ping!"
no_permission: You're missing the required permission to execute this command!

Returns the age or maximum age of blocks and age for entities (there in no maximum age for entities). For blocks, 'Age' represents the different growth stages that a crop-like block can go through. A value of 0 indicates that the crop was freshly planted, whilst a value equal to 'maximum age' indicates that the crop is ripe and ready to be harvested. For entities, 'Age' represents the time left for them to become adults and it's in minus increasing to be 0 which means they're adults, e.g. A baby cow needs 20 minutes to become an adult which equals to 24,000 ticks so their age will be -24000 once spawned.
Examples:
# Set targeted crop to fully grown crop
set age of targeted block to maximum age of targeted block
# Spawn a baby cow that will only need 1 minute to become an adult
spawn a baby cow at player
set age of last spawned entity to -1200 # in ticks = 60 seconds

All characters between two given characters, useful for generating random strings. This expression uses the Unicode numerical code of a character to determine which characters are between the two given characters. The ASCII table linked here shows this ordering for the first 256 characters. If you would like only alphanumeric characters you can use the 'alphanumeric' option in the expression. If strings of more than one character are given, only the first character of each is used.
Examples:
loop characters from "a" to "f":
broadcast "%loop-value%"
# 0123456789:;<=>?@ABC... ...uvwxyz
send characters between "0" and "z"
# 0123456789ABC... ...uvwxyz
send alphanumeric characters between "0" and "z"
broadcast "%loop-value%"
# 0123456789:;<=>?@ABC... ...uvwxyz
send characters between "0" and "z"
# 0123456789ABC... ...uvwxyz
send alphanumeric characters between "0" and "z"

| Patterns: | |
| Since: | 2.10.0 |
| Return Type: |
Returns or changes the brightness override of displays. Unmodified displays will not have a brightness override value set. Resetting or deleting this value will remove the override. Use the 'block' or 'sky' options to get/change specific values or get both values as a list by using neither option. NOTE: setting only one of the sky/block light overrides of a display without an existing override will set both sky and block light to the given value. Make sure to set both block and sky levels to your desired values for the best results. Likewise, you can only clear the brightness override, you cannot clear/reset the sky/block values individually.
Examples:
set sky light override of the last spawned text display to 7
subtract 3 from the block light level override of the last spawned text display
if sky light level override of {_display} is 5:
clear brightness override of {_display}
subtract 3 from the block light level override of the last spawned text display

Returns or changes the height or width of displays. The rendering culling bounding box spans horizontally width/2 from entity position, which determines the point at which the display will be frustum culled (no longer rendered because the game determines you are no longer able to see it). If set to 0, no culling will occur on both the vertical and horizontal directions. Default is 0.0.
Examples:
set display height of the last spawned text display to 2.5
| Patterns: | |

| Return Type: | Timespan |
Returns or changes the interpolation delay/duration of displays. Interpolation duration is the amount of time a display will take to interpolate, or shift, between its current state and a new state. Interpolation delay is the amount of ticks before client-side interpolation will commence.Setting to 0 seconds will make it immediate. Resetting either value will return that value to 0.
Examples:
set interpolation delay of the last spawned text display to 2 ticks
| Patterns: | |
| Since: | 2.10.0 |
| Requirements: | Spigot 1.20.4+ |

The teleport duration of displays is the amount of time it takes to get between locations. 0 means that updates are applied immediately. 1 means that the display entity will move from current position to the updated one over one tick. Higher values spread the movement over multiple ticks. Max of 59 ticks.
Examples:
set teleport delay of the last spawned text display to 2 ticks
teleport last spawned text display to {_location}
wait 2 ticks
message "display entity has arrived at %{_location}%"
teleport last spawned text display to {_location}
wait 2 ticks
message "display entity has arrived at %{_location}%"

| Since: | 2.10.0 |
| Return Type: |
Returns or changes the view range of displays. Default value is 1.0. This value is then multiplied by 64 and the player's entity view distance setting to determine the actual range. For example, a player with 150% entity view distance will see a block display with a view range of 1.2 at 1.2 * 64 * 150% = 115.2 blocks away.
Examples:
set view range of the last spawned text display to 2.9

Represents the value of an expression before an event happened or the value it will have directly after the event, e.g. the old or new level respectively in a level change event. Note: The past, future and present states of an expression are sometimes called 'time states' of an expression. Note 2: If you don't specify whether to use the past or future state of an expression that has different values, its default value will be used which is usually the value after the event.
Examples:
on teleport:
former world was "world_nether" # or 'world was'
world will be "world" # or 'world after the event is'
on tool change:
past tool is an axe
the tool after the event will be air
on weather change:
set {weather::%world%::old} to past weather
set {weather::%world%::current} to the new weather
former world was "world_nether" # or 'world was'

| Usable in events: | smelt, fuel burn |
| Return Type: | Slot |
A slot of a furnace, i.e. either the ore, fuel or result slot. Remember to use 'block' and not
furnace, as furnace is not an existing expression. Note that the result and the result slot refer to separate things. the result is the product in a smelt event and the result slot is the output slot of a furnace (where the result will end up). Note that if the result in a smelt event is changed to an item that differs in type from the items currently in the result slot, the smelting will fail to complete (the item will attempt to smelt itself again). Note that if values other than the result are changed, event values may not accurately reflect the actual items in a furnace. Thus you may wish to use the event block in this case (e.g. the fuel slot of the event-block) to get accurate values if needed. Examples:
set the fuel slot of the clicked block to a lava bucket
set the block's ore slot to 64 iron ore
give the result of the block to the player
clear the result slot of the block
set the block's ore slot to 64 iron ore
give the result of the block to the player
clear the result slot of the block

| Return Type: | Text |
Hashes the given text using the MD5 or SHA-256 algorithms. Each algorithm is suitable for different use cases.
MD5 is provided mostly for backwards compatibility, as it is outdated and not secure. SHA-256 is more secure, and can used to hash somewhat confidental data like IP addresses and even passwords. It is not that secure out of the box, so please consider using salt when dealing with passwords! When hashing data, you must specify algorithms that will be used for security reasons!
Please note that a hash cannot be reversed under normal circumstanses. You will not be able to get original value from a hash with Skript.
Examples:
command /setpass <text>:
trigger:
set {password::%uuid of player%} to text-argument hashed with SHA-256
command /login <text>:
trigger:
if text-argument hashed with SHA-256 is {password::%uuid of player%}:

The player's progress in reaching the next level, this represents the experience bar in the game. Please note that this value is between 0 and 1 (e.g. 0.5 = half experience bar). Changing this value can cause the player's level to change if the resulting level progess is negative or larger than 1, e.g.
increase the player's level progress by 0.5 will make the player gain a level if their progress was more than 50%. Examples:
# use the exp bar as mana

Parses text as a given type, or as a given pattern. This expression can be used in two different ways: One which parses the entire text as a single instance of a type, e.g. as a number, and one that parses the text according to a pattern. If the given text could not be parsed, this expression will return nothing and the parse error will be set if some information is available. Some notes about parsing with a pattern: - The pattern must be a Skript pattern, e.g. percent signs are used to define where to parse which types, e.g. put a %number% or %items% in the pattern if you expect a number or some items there. - You have to save the expression's value in a list variable, e.g.
set {parsed::*} to message parsed as "...". - The list variable will contain the parsed values from all %types% in the pattern in order. If a type was plural, e.g. %items%, the variable's value at the respective index will be a list variable, e.g. the values will be stored in {parsed::1::*}, not {parsed::1}. Examples:
set {var} to line 1 parsed as number
on chat:
set {var::*} to message parsed as "buying %items% for %money%"
if parse error is set:
message "%parse error%"
else if {var::*} is set:

| Return Type: |
The protocol version that will be sent as the protocol version of the server in a server list ping event. For more information and list of protocol versions visit wiki.vg. If this protocol version doesn't match with the protocol version of the client, the client will see the version string. But please note that, this expression has no visual effect over the version string. For example if the server uses PaperSpigot 1.12.2, and you make the protocol version 107 (1.9), the version string will not be "Paper 1.9", it will still be "Paper 1.12.2". But then you can customize the version string as you wish. Also if the protocol version of the player is higher than protocol version of the server, it will say "Server out of date!", and if vice-versa "Client out of date!" when you hover on the ping bars.
This can be set in a server list ping event only (increase and decrease effects cannot be used because that wouldn't make sense).
Examples:
on server list ping:
set the version string to "<light green>Version: <orange>%minecraft version%"
set the protocol version to 0 # 13w41a (1.7) - so the player will see the custom version string almost always
set the version string to "<light green>Version: <orange>%minecraft version%"

Rotates a quaternion or vector around an axis a set amount of degrees, or around all 3 axes at once. Vectors can only be rotated around the global X/Y/Z axes, or an arbitrary vector axis. Quaternions are more flexible, allowing rotation around the global or local X/Y/Z axes, arbitrary vectors, or all 3 local axes at once. Global axes are the ones in the Minecraft world. Local axes are relative to how the quaternion is already oriented.
Note that rotating a quaternion around a vector results in a rotation around the local vector, so results may not be what you expect. For example, rotating around vector(1, 0, 0) is the same as rotating around the local X axis. The same applies to rotations by all three axes at once. In addition, rotating around all three axes of a quaternion/display at once will rotate in ZYX order, meaning the Z rotation will be applied first and the X rotation last.
Examples:
set {_new} to {_quaternion} rotated around x axis by 10 degrees
set {_new} to {_vector} rotated around vector(1, 1, 1) by 45
set {_new} to {_quaternion} rotated by x 45, y 90, z 135

| Return Type: | Time |
The time of a world. Use the "minecraft timespan" syntax to change the time according to Minecraft's time intervals. Since Minecraft uses discrete intervals for time (ticks), changing the time by real-world minutes or real-world seconds only changes it approximately. Removing an amount of time from a world's time will move the clock forward a day.
Examples:
set time of world "world" to 2:00
add 2 minecraft hours to time of world "world"
add 54 real seconds to time of world "world" # approximately 1 minecraft hour
add 2 minecraft hours to time of world "world"
add 54 real seconds to time of world "world" # approximately 1 minecraft hour

| Since: | 2.5, 2.7 (offline players) |
| Requirements: | MC 1.15+ (offline players) |
| Return Type: | Timespan |
The amount of time a player has played for on the server. This info is stored in the player's statistics in the main world's data folder. Changing this will also change the player's stats which can be views in the client's statistics menu. Using this expression on offline players on Minecraft 1.14 and below will return nothing
<none>. Examples:
set {_t} to time played of player
if player's time played is greater than 10 minutes:
give player a diamond sword
set player's time played to 0 seconds
if player's time played is greater than 10 minutes:
give player a diamond sword
set player's time played to 0 seconds
| Patterns: | |
| Since: | 2.5, 2.10.0 (time until) |
| Return Type: | Timespan |
The time since a date has passed or the time until a date will pass. This expression will return 0 seconds if the time since or time until would be negative, e.g. if one tries to get the time since a future date.
Examples:
send "%time since 5 minecraft days ago% has passed since 5 minecraft days ago!" to player
send "%time until {countdown::end}% until the game begins!" to player
send "%time until {countdown::end}% until the game begins!" to player

| Requirements: | Paper 1.19+ (player changers) |
| Return Type: |
The yaw or pitch of a location or vector. A yaw of 0 or 360 represents the positive z direction. Adding a positive number to the yaw of a player will rotate it clockwise. A pitch of 90 represents the negative y direction, or downward facing. A pitch of -90 represents upward facing. Adding a positive number to the pitch will rotate the direction downwards. Only Paper 1.19+ users may directly change the yaw/pitch of players.
Examples:
log "%player%: %location of player%, %player's yaw%, %player's pitch%" to "playerlocs.log"

| Since: | 1.4, 2.1.1 (ban reason), 2.5 (timespan), 2.9.0 (kick) |
Bans or unbans a player or an IP address. If a reason is given, it will be shown to the player when they try to join the server while banned. A length of ban may also be given to apply a temporary ban. If it is absent for any reason, a permanent ban will be used instead. We recommend that you test your scripts so that no accidental permanent bans are applied.
Note that banning people does not kick them from the server. You can optionally use 'and kick' or consider using the kick effect after applying a ban.
Examples:
unban player
ban "127.0.0.1"
IP-ban the player because "he is an idiot"
ban player due to "inappropriate language" for 2 days
ban and kick player due to "inappropriate language" for 2 days

Connect a player to a server running on your proxy, or any server supporting transfers. Read below for more information. If the server is running Minecraft 1.20.5 or above, you may specify an IP and Port to transfer a player over to that server. When transferring players using an IP, the transfer will not complete if the `accepts-transfers` option isn't enabled in `server.properties` for the server specified. If the port is not provided, it will default to `25565`.
Examples:
connect all players to proxy server "hub"
transfer player to server "my.server.com"
transfer player to server "localhost" on port 25566
transfer player to server "my.server.com"
transfer player to server "localhost" on port 25566

Creates an explosion of a given force. The Minecraft Wiki has an article on explosions which lists the explosion forces of TNT, creepers, etc. Hint: use a force of 0 to create a fake explosion that does no damage whatsoever, or use the explosion effect introduced in Skript 2.0. Starting with Bukkit 1.4.5 and Skript 2.0 you can use safe explosions which will damage entities but won't destroy any blocks.

| Requirements: | Minecraft 1.18.1+ (entity emitters), Paper 1.19.4+ or Adventure API 4.12.0+ (sound seed) |
Plays a sound at given location for everyone or just for given players, or plays a sound to specified players. Both Minecraft sound names and Spigot sound names are supported. Playing resource pack sounds are supported too. The sound category is 'master' by default.
When running 1.19+, playing a sound from an entity directly will result in the sound coming from said entity, even while moving. If the sound is custom, a location emitter will follow the entity. Do note that pitch and volume are reflected based on the entity, and Minecraft may not use the values from this syntax.
If using Paper 1.19.4+ or Adventure API 4.12.0+ you can utilize sound seeds. Minecraft sometimes have a set of sounds under one sound ID that will randomly play, to counter this, you can directly state which seed to use.
Please note that sound names can get changed in any Minecraft or Spigot version, or even removed from Minecraft itself.
Examples:
play sound "block.note_block.pling"
play sound "entity.experience_orb.pickup" with volume 0.5 to the player
play sound "custom.music.1" in jukebox category at {speakerBlock}
play sound "BLOCK_AMETHYST_BLOCK_RESONATE" with seed 1 on target entity for the player #1.20.1+

| Since: | 2.2-dev28, 2.10.0 (quaternions, displays) |
Rotates displays, quaternions, or vectors around an axis a set amount of degrees, or around all 3 axes at once. Vectors can only be rotated around the global X/Y/Z axes, or an arbitrary vector axis. Quaternions are more flexible, allowing rotation around the global or local X/Y/Z axes, arbitrary vectors, or all 3 local axes at once. Global axes are the ones in the Minecraft world. Local axes are relative to how the quaternion is already oriented.
Rotating a display is a shortcut for rotating its left rotation. If the right rotation needs to be modified, it should be acquired, rotated, and re-set.
Note that rotating a quaternion/display around a vector results in a rotation around the local vector, so results may not be what you expect. For example, rotating quaternions/displays around vector(1, 0, 0) is the same as rotating around the local X axis. The same applies to rotations by all three axes at once. In addition, rotating around all three axes of a quaternion/display at once will rotate in ZYX order, meaning the Z rotation will be applied first and the X rotation last.
Examples:
rotate {_quaternion} around x axis by 10 degrees
rotate last spawned block display around y axis by 10 degrees
rotate {_vector} around vector(1, 1, 1) by 45
rotate {_quaternion} by x 45, y 90, z 135

Teleport an entity to a specific location. This effect is delayed by default on Paper, meaning certain syntax such as the return effect for functions cannot be used after this effect. The keyword 'force' indicates this effect will not be delayed, which may cause lag spikes or server crashes when using this effect to teleport entities to unloaded chunks.
Examples:
teleport the player to {homes::%player%}
teleport the attacker to the victim
teleport the attacker to the victim

Sends a title/subtitle to the given player(s) with optional fadein/stay/fadeout times for Minecraft versions 1.11 and above.
If you're sending only the subtitle, it will be shown only if there's a title displayed at the moment, otherwise it will be sent with the next title. To show only the subtitle, use: send title " " with subtitle "yourtexthere" to player.
Note: if no input is given for the times, it will keep the ones from the last title sent, use the reset title effect to restore the default values.
Examples:
send title "Competition Started" with subtitle "Have fun, Stay safe!" to player for 5 seconds
send title "Hi %player%" to player

Spawns entities. This can be used as an effect and as a section.
If it is used as a section, the section is run before the entity is added to the world. You can modify the entity in this section, using for example 'event-entity' or 'cow'. Do note that other event values, such as 'player', won't work in this section.
If you're spawning a display and want it to be empty on initialization, like not having a block display be stone, set hidden config node 'spawn empty displays' to true.
Examples:
spawn 3 creepers at the targeted block
spawn a ghast 5 meters above the player

A very general condition, it simply compares two values. Usually you can only compare for equality (e.g. block is/isn't of <type>), but some values can also be compared using greater than/less than. In that case you can also test for whether an object is between two others. Note: This is the only element where not all patterns are shown. It has actually another two sets of similar patters, but with
(was|were) or will be instead of (is|are) respectively, which check different time states of the first expression. Examples:
the clicked block is a stone slab or a double stone slab
time in the player's world is greater than 8:00

Checks whether a player is online. The 'connected' pattern will return false once this player leaves the server, even if they rejoin. Be aware that using the 'connected' pattern with a variable will not have this special behavior. Use the direct event-player or other non-variable expression for best results.
Examples:
player is online
player-argument is offline
while player is connected:
wait 60 seconds
send "hello!" to player
# The following will act like `{_player} is online`.
# Using variables with `is connected` will not behave the same as with non-variables.
while {_player} is connected:
broadcast "online!"
wait 1 tick

Checks whether a block is passable. A block is passable if it has no colliding parts that would prevent players from moving through it. Blocks like tall grass, flowers, signs, etc. are passable, but open doors, fence gates, trap doors, etc. are not because they still have parts that can be collided with.
Examples:

Check if a plugin is enabled/disabled on the server. Plugin names can be found in the plugin's 'plugin.yml' file or by using the '/plugins' command, they are NOT the name of the plugin's jar file. When checking if a plugin is not enabled, this will return true if the plugin is either disabled or not on the server. When checking if a plugin is disabled, this will return true if the plugin is on the server and is disabled.
Examples:

filter {_a::*} to match:
input is a number
mod(input, 2) = 0
input > 0
send {_a::*} # sends 2, 4, 6, 8, and 10

Loop sections repeat their code with multiple values.
A loop will loop through all elements of the given expression, e.g. all players, worlds, items, etc. The conditions & effects inside the loop will be executed for every of those elements, which can be accessed with ‘loop- Loopable Values All expressions that represent more than one value, e.g. ‘all players’, ‘worlds’, etc., as well as list variables, can be looped. You can also use a list of expressions, e.g. List Variables When looping list variables, you can also use send "hello" to loop-player. When a condition inside a loop is not fulfilled the loop will start over with the next element of the loop. You can however use stop loop to exit the loop completely and resume code execution after the end of the loop.loop the victim and the attacker, to execute the same code for only a few values.loop-index in addition to loop-value inside the loop. loop-value is the value of the currently looped variable, and loop-index is the last part of the variable's name (the part where the list variable has its asterisk *).

Called when the server sends a list of commands to the player. This usually happens on join. The sent commands can be modified via the sent commands expression. Modifications will affect what commands show up for the player to tab complete. They will not affect what commands the player can actually run. Adding new commands to the list is illegal behavior and will be ignored.
Examples:
on send command list:
set command list to command list where [input does not contain ":"]
remove "help" from command list
set command list to command list where [input does not contain ":"]
remove "help" from command list
| Patterns: |

Called when a server list ping is coming in, generally when a Minecraft client pings the server to show its information in the server list. The IP expression can be used to get the IP adress of the pinger. This event can be cancelled on PaperSpigot 1.12.2+ only and this means the player will see the server as offline (but still can join).
Also you can use MOTD, Max Players, Online Players Count, Protocol Version, Version String, Hover List and Server Icon expressions, and Player Info Visibility and Hide Player from Server List effects to modify the server list.
Examples:
on server list ping:
set the motd to "Welcome %{player-by-IP::%ip%}%! Join now!" if {player-by-IP::%ip%} is set, else "Join now!"
set the fake max players count to (online players count + 1)
set the shown icon to a random server icon out of {server-icons::*}

Block data is the detailed information about a block, referred to in Minecraft as BlockStates, allowing for the manipulation of different aspects of the block, including shape, waterlogging, direction the block is facing, and so much more. Information regarding each block's optional data can be found on Minecraft's Wiki. Find the block you're looking for and scroll down to 'Block States'. Different states must be separated by a semicolon (see examples). The 'minecraft:' namespace is optional, as well as are underscores.
Examples:
set block at player to campfire[lit=false]
set target block of player to oak stairs[facing=north;waterlogged=true]

An item, e.g. a stack of torches, a furnace, or a wooden sword of sharpness 2. Unlike item type an item can only represent exactly one item (e.g. an upside-down cobblestone stair facing west), while an item type can represent a whole range of items (e.g. any cobble stone stairs regardless of direction). You don't usually need this type except when you want to make a command that only accepts an exact item.

An item type is an alias, e.g. 'a pickaxe', 'all plants', etc., and can result in different items when added to an inventory, and unlike items they are well suited for checking whether an inventory contains a certain item or whether a certain item is of a certain type. An item type can also have one or more enchantments with or without a specific level defined, and can optionally start with 'all' or 'every' to make this item type represent all types that the alias represents, including data ranges.

A player that is possibly offline. See player for more information. Please note that while all effects and conditions that require a player can be used with an offline player as well, they will not work if the player is not actually online.
Examples:

A player. Depending on whether a player is online or offline several actions can be performed with them, though you won't get any errors when using effects that only work if the player is online (e.g. changing their inventory) on an offline player. You have two possibilities to use players as command arguments: <player> and <offline player>. The first requires that the player is online and also accepts only part of the name, while the latter doesn't require that the player is online, but the player's name has to be entered exactly.
Examples:
set {_p} to "Notch" parsed as a player # returns &amp;amp;lt;none&amp;amp;gt; unless Notch is actually online or starts with Notch like Notchan
set {_p} to "N" parsed as a player # returns Notch if Notch is online because their name starts with 'N' (case insensitive) however, it would return nothing if no player whose name starts with 'N' is online.
set {_p} to "N" parsed as a player # returns Notch if Notch is online because their name starts with 'N' (case insensitive) however, it would return nothing if no player whose name starts with 'N' is online.

Represents a single slot of an inventory. Notable slots are the armour slots and furnace slots. The most important property that distinguishes a slot from an item is its ability to be changed, e.g. it can be set, deleted, enchanted, etc. (Some item expressions can be changed as well, e.g. items stored in variables. For that matter: slots are never saved to variables, only the items they represent at the time when the variable is set). Please note that tool can be regarded a slot, but it can actually change it's position, i.e. doesn't represent always the same slot.
Examples:
set tool of player to dirt
delete helmet of the victim
set the color of the player's tool to green
enchant the player's chestplate with projectile protection 5

Text is simply text, i.e. a sequence of characters, which can optionally contain expressions which will be replaced with a meaningful representation (e.g. %player% will be replaced with the player's name). Because scripts are also text, you have to put text into double quotes to tell Skript which part of the line is an effect/expression and which part is the text. Please read the article on Texts and Variable Names to learn more.
Examples:
broadcast "Hello World!"
message "Hello %player%"
message "The id of ""%type of tool%"" is %id of tool%."
message "Hello %player%"
message "The id of ""%type of tool%"" is %id of tool%."

A timespan is a difference of two different dates or times, e.g '10 minutes'. Timespans are always displayed as real life time, but can be defined as minecraft time, e.g. '5 minecraft days and 12 hours'. NOTE: Months always have the value of 30 days, and years of 365 days. See date and time for the other time types of Skript.
Examples:
every 5 minecraft days:
wait a minecraft second and 5 ticks

A logarithm, with base 10 if none is specified. This is the inverse operation to exponentiation (for positive bases only), i.e.
log(base ^ exponent, base) = exponent for any positive number 'base' and any number 'exponent'. Another useful equation is base ^ log(a, base) = a for any numbers 'base' and 'a'. Please note that due to how numbers are represented in computers, these equations do not hold for all numbers, as the computed values may slightly differ from the correct value. Returns NaN (not a number) if any of the arguments are negative. Examples:
log(100) = 2 # 10^2 = 100
