I can not use log function in matlab

Hello can someone help understand why matlab doesnt understand what the logarithmic function is ? ( ps : it worked befoer and now suddenly it doesnt)

here is the error it gives me :

"Execution of script log as a function is not supported:

C:\Program Files\MATLAB\R2021b\toolbox\matlab\elfun\log.m"

What should i do ?

I tried it and unfortunately nothing changes it still gives the same error

@Fatiha AZARUAL - You probably created a script named log.m, and saved it in that directory. That is a terribly bad choice. First, see if you did that. But if you did so, then you may be best served if you reinstall MATLAB.

Maybe i did i have no idea but now after i reinstalled it, it works fine thank you!
