How should I compute log to the base two in python. Eg. I have this equation where I am using log base 2
import math
e = -(t/T)* math.log((t/T)[, 2])

In python 3 or above, math class has the following functions
import math
math.log2(x)
math.log10(x)
math.log1p(x)
or you can generally use math.log(x, base) for any base you want.
Use help method
>>> import math
>>> help(math.log)
Help on built-in function log in module math:
log(...)
log(x, [base=math.e])
Return the logarithm of x to the given base.
If the base not specified, returns the natural logarithm (base e) of x.
(END)
log(x, [base=math.e])
Return the logarithm of x to the given base.
