\usage{
step_log(
recipe,
...,
role = NA,
trained = FALSE,
base = exp(1),
offset = 0,
columns = NULL,
skip = FALSE,
signed = FALSE,
id = rand_id("log")
)
}
\arguments{
\item{recipe}{A recipe object. The step will be added to the
sequence of operations for this recipe.}
\item{...}{One or more selector functions to choose variables
for this step. See \code{\link[=selections]{selections()}} for more details.}
\item{role}{Not used by this step since no new variables are
created.}
\item{trained}{A logical to indicate if the quantities for
preprocessing have been estimated.}
\item{base}{A numeric value for the base.}
\item{offset}{An optional value to add to the data prior to
logging (to avoid \code{log(0)}).}
\item{columns}{A character string of variable names that will
be populated (eventually) by the \code{terms} argument.}
\item{skip}{A logical. Should the step be skipped when the
recipe is baked by \code{\link[=bake]{bake()}}? While all operations are baked
when \code{\link[=prep]{prep()}} is run, some operations may not be able to be
conducted on new data (e.g. processing the outcome variable(s)).
Care should be taken when using \code{skip = TRUE} as it may affect
the computations for subsequent operations.}
\item{signed}{A logical indicating whether to take the signed log.
This is sign(x) * abs(log(x)) when abs(x) => 1 or 0 if abs(x) < 1.
If \code{TRUE} the \code{offset} argument will be ignored.}
\item{id}{A character string that is unique to this step to identify it.}
}
\value{
An updated version of \code{recipe} with the new step added to the
sequence of any existing operations.
}
\description{
\code{step_log} creates a \emph{specification} of a recipe step
that will log transform data.
}
\section{Tidying}{
When you \code{\link[=tidy.recipe]{tidy()}} this step, a tibble with columns
\code{terms} (the columns that will be affected) and \code{base}.
}
\section{Case weights}{
The underlying operation does not allow for case weights.
