seqlogic.clog2(x: int) → int

Return the ceiling log base two of an integer ≥ 1.

Tells you the minimum dimension of a Boolean space with at least N points.

For example, here are the values of clog2(N) for \(1 ≤ N < 18\):

>>> [clog2(n) for n in range(1, 18)]
[0, 1, 2, 2, 3, 3, 3, 3, 4, 4, 4, 4, 4, 4, 4, 4, 5]

Defined only for positive integers:

>>> clog2(0)
Traceback (most recent call last):
    ...
ValueError: Expected x ≥ 1, got 0
