arg.arg has type long double, log10l is called. Otherwise, if arg has integer type or the type double, log10 is called. Otherwise, log10f is called.| arg | - | floating point value | 
If no errors occur, the common (base-10) logarithm of arg (log10(arg) or lg(arg)) is returned.
If a domain error occurs, an implementation-defined value is returned (NaN where supported).
If a pole error occurs, -HUGE_VAL, -HUGE_VALF, or -HUGE_VALL is returned.
Errors are reported as specified in math_errhandling.
Domain error occurs if arg is less than zero.
Pole error may occur if arg is zero.
If the implementation supports IEEE floating-point arithmetic (IEC 60559),
FE_DIVBYZERO is raised. FE_INVALID is raised. #include <stdio.h>
