Find the domain of the given function
f(x)=(√lnx)
domain: [1,∞)
note: for x<1, lnx<0 (this is true for logs of any base)

In his post, @lwsshar3 makes a note

        for x < 1, ln(x) < 0 (this is true for logs of any base)


As an absolute statement, this note is wrong:  for x < 1,  log%28a%2Cx%29  is negative only if the base 'a' is greater than  1  (one).

In opposite,  if the base  'a'  is lesser than  1,  then  log%28a%2Cx%29  is  POSITIVE  for  x < 1.

Be aware.
