Hi I know the question usually tells us.. But I'm just curious to know if there's say a learning rate if 95% how do I input this in my calc.. I seem to have forgotten ?! Thanks

Hi guys Struggling with the log 2 .. If I have 90% learning rate.. I’ve typed : log 0.9 / log it gives me 0.475632 This doesn’t look right coz in sure it’s supposed to be a negative number Any ideas

Isn't it b= log 0.95 / log 2... that value must ALWAYS be negative. .. I'm 95% sure lol

What do you mean? You're not sure how to calculate it on your calculator?

Yep :(

Aw no worries... it's not difficult. But it all depends on the brand of calculator you have. U may either have to press the log or lg button & then the .95 or u may have to do the reverse. Best thing to do is check your calc manual or YouTube it.

Yep I'm beginning to think it's the calc setting default at log 10 .. I think. Atleast I know it's not me!! Lol .. Fink I need to call it a day on that note !! Thanks :)
