<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>As far as I know :) The log[base 10]&nbsp;of zero
and the log[base 0] do not exist. I am not qualified to give you an mathmatical
rule or proof that proves the reason behind this. I think of it as another of
those rules in mathmatics that are just because. I do think that it has
something to do with&nbsp;how logs [plural of the mathmatical term and not the
wooden kind] describe the curve of lines occuring in a coordinate system. Thus a
zero would indicate that no line exists. </FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>If you question was meant to make me aware of the
reason behind my error in IDL, I thank you. I figured this out last week and now
I am working on a solution to solve it. Any&nbsp;suggestions to what I should do
with&nbsp;the zero's in my array would be helpful!</FONT></DIV>
