I know that this must be a simple thing to do, but I can't think of a
decent way to get a log base 10 of a number.  Since a log function
isn't included in Pascal (even turbo) I assume it is a simple matter
to derive one for the mathmatically inclined;  not so for me.  Any
help will be much appreciated.

Thanks,
