Alī ibn Walī Ibn Hamza al-Maghribi (Arabic:
علي بن ولي بن حمزة المغربي)
was a 16th-century Muslim mathematician. He was born in Algeria but
was educated in Istanbul during the rule of Murad III.
His most important work was Tuhfat al-a'dad fi-l-hisab
(The Ornament of Numbers), in Turkish, which discusses some form of the concept
of the logarithm.
Logarithm
In mathematics, the logarithm is the inverse function
to exponentiation. That means the logarithm of a given number x is the exponent
to which another fixed number, the base b, must be raised, to produce that
number x.
