Rename "log" function to "ln"? #10

Closed tfausak closed 8 years ago

tfausak commented 9 years ago

While working on purescript-batteries, I ran into a collision between Math.log and Control.Monad.Eff.Console.log. I think people are more likely to mean Console.log than Math.log when they just say log. And since Math.log is the natural logarithm, it can unambiguously be called ln, avoiding the collision.

Obviously this isn't a problem with this package per se. I could (and may) address this in purescript-batteries. But I wanted to open an issue here for discussion.

I'm trying to address this in purescript-neon instead.
