It just showed up 19 minutes ago on my side of the world. Your's is
better than mine ;)

However, instead of log x being the log base 10 how about

log b::int x::double | log b::bigint x::double = ln x / ln b;

I use this definition more often.

Oh yea, how about going a head and defining the constant PI?
def PI = 3.14159265358979;
That is as many digits as I can get Pure to represent.
