log file
This term is primarily used in technical and computing contexts to describe a chronological record of system activity. It carries a neutral, functional connotation, serving as a diagnostic tool for developers and system administrators to troubleshoot failures or monitor security breaches.
In professional environments, the term is often shortened to simply "log" (e.g., "check the logs"), though "log file" explicitly refers to the physical file stored on a disk. It is distinct from a "journal," which typically implies a more structured or transactional record of changes.
