Re: [Vo]:Plea for math/statistics expertise from RonPaulForums.com
ok, I make a mistake. there is a law that any set of physical value (unbounded), will have the most significant digit respect a log law. this case seems different. and also i should have guessed that vote don't respect that law, since it is bounded. however correlations, or indirect values, should respect that law 2012/3/17 Bastiaan Bergman bastiaan.berg...@gmail.com LEAST significant digit.

Re: [Vo]:Plea for math/statistics expertise from RonPaulForums.com
it seems that in rogue finance, money laundry and rogue business some start to invent data that respect that law to look good. the trick to detect that fake is to use the same rule for the correlation between data, which might be meaningless, but will respect the low. the idea of that law is that physical values don't care about the unit you use, and have no preference for round numbers. whatever are the unit, the coefficients, the statistics of first digits should be the same, and the onlyway to keep the scale invariance is having a log law for digit probability... 2012/3/16 Xavier Luminous xavier.lumin...@googlemail.com Off the top of my head I'd like to mention that Benford's Law is particularly good at rooting out cheaters.
