Yes, my all time reading is a good match for Benford's law.


Yes, my all time reading is a good match for Benford's law. · Benford's law and some recent stats

I used stats from the last three blogs I wrote on, and after that alphabetically down to HGL's FB Writings. I took views on "articles" (French for "posts") and "pages". I piled up those starting in 1, those starting in 2, and so on.

1,9 k 1,61 k 1,58 k 1,44 k 15,6 k 14,6 k 13,8 k 1,67 k 1,42 k 1,21 k 196 190 163 159 151 130 127 124 119 118 13 k 1,37 k 1,66 k 1,64 k 1,57 k 1,7 k 1,67 k 1,46 k 1,43 k 1,63 k 199 183 188 155 154 1,06 k 1,97 k 1,88 k 1,86 k 1,83 k 1,72 k 1 1 1 1 1 1,67 k 1,02 k 1,7 k 1,4 k 1,99 k 1 k 1,13 k 1,42 k 1,02 k 175 124 122 13,9 k 1,21 k 1,08 k 1,08 k 1,69 k 1,07 k - 64 start in 1

64 start in 1 - 0.2857142857142857 (low by 1.53 % units)
50 start in 2 - 0.2232142857142857 (high by 4.72 % units)
24 start in 3 - 0.1071428571428571 (low by 1.79 % units)
19 start in 4 - 0.0848214285714286 (low by 1.22 % units)
8 start in 5 - 0.0357142857142857 (low by 4.33 % units)
16 start in 6 - 0.0714285714285714 (high by 0.44 % units)
13 start in 7 - 0.0580357142857143 (exact)
13 start in 8 - 0.0580357142857143 (high by 0.7 % units)
17 start in 9 - 0.0758928571428571 (high by 2.99 % units)

64 + 50 + 24 + 19 + 8 + 16 + 13 + 13 + 17 = 224
64 / 224 = 0.2857142857142857 = 28.57 % < 30.1 %
50 / 224 = 0.2232142857142857 = 22.32 % > 17.6 % et c.

One of the digits the numbers could start with is exactly at 5.8 %, namely 7, which also should have 5.8 %. There are 9 different digits a number can start with, and of the eight others, four are high, four are low.

If I had invented the numbers, my pretended irregularity would not be irregular enough, and there would be stronger over representation of certain numbers./HGL
