Answer for what is log transformation

https://365datascience.com/dwqa-answer/answer-for-what-is-log-transformation/ -

Hi Deepak,

A log transformation is one of the most popular ways to deal with skewed data.

It consists in taking the logarithm of each of the observations of a random variable. Ultimately, this (usually) scales down the observations and leads to a much less dispersed sample.

Finally, if the distribution of the original variable is log-normal, the log-transformation would result in a variable with a normal distribution.

Best,
