I was wondering what does log^3(n) mean (yes its log^3 (n) not log (n)^3)?
 
Mathematics news on Phys.org
What do you mean with :" what does [tex]log^3n[/tex] mean? It is simply the third power of the log. Or are u asking how will that change the basic shape of the log function?

Does that mean log^3 n = (logn)^3?
 
Yes.

Just like

[tex]\sin^3x = (\sin x)^3[/tex]
