Natural logarithm. The amount of time needed to reach a certain level of continuous growth. Returns the [url=https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Natural_logarithm]natural logarithm[/url] of [code]s[/code] (base [url=https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/E_(mathematical_constant)][i]e[/i][/url], with [i]e[/i] being approximately 2.71828). This is the amount of time needed to reach a certain level of continuous growth.
