log( z/y )
-----------
An example:
Suppose the base is +10+ and
+z+=+10000+
+y+=+10+
-------------
+log%28z%29+-+log%28y%29+=+log%2810000%29+-+log%2810%29+
++log%28z%29+-+log%28y%29+=+4+-+1+
++log%28z%29+-+log%28y%29+=+3+
and
+log%28%28+z%2Fy+%29%29+=+log%28+10000%2F10+%29+
+log%28%28+z%2Fy+%29%29+=+log%28+1000+%29+
+log%28%28+z%2Fy+%29%29+=+3+
-----------------
Hope this helps
