ADSP TOOLBOX: Version 2.0 and gui m-files

function y = alog(x,n)
% ALOG Anti-log and dB to gain conversion.
%
%	Z = ALOG(X,N) returns anti-log of X to the base N.
%       Z = ALOG(X)   returns the is anti-log of X to the base e.
%      	If n = 0, ALOG(X,0) returns the gain corresponding to X dB
%
%       ALOG (with no input arguments) invokes the following example:
%
%      	% Compute the gain  corresponding to 20 dB and 8 dB 
%	  >>db = [20 8]
%         >>gain = alog(db,0)
