Maybe it's my imagination, but it seems to me that the factors of the
prime exponent Mersenne numbers start with a 1 more often than a 2 or
3 etc. Are they obeying Benford's law too?
For instance, for the 10 primes from 5003 to 5081, there are 20 known
factors. 10 of them start with a 1.
Thanks
Steve
