MySQL's LN(~) method returns the value of the natural (base-$e$) logarithm of X. If we provide an input less than or equal to 0 we will return NULL.
Parameters
1. X | number
The number to return the natural logarithm for.
Return value
The value of the natural logarithm of X.
Examples
To return natural logarithm of 256:
        
        
            
                
                
                    SELECT LN(256);
                
            
            +-------------------+| LN(256)           |+-------------------+| 5.545177444479562 |+-------------------+
        
    To return natural logarithm of 0:
        
        
            
                
                
                    SELECT LN(0);
                
            
            +-------+| LN(0) |+-------+|  NULL |+-------+
