Description: Sometimes numbers are... weird. Benford's Law is a favorite example of this for us--it's a law that governs the distribution of the first digit in certain types of numbers. As it turns out, if you're looking up the length of a river, the population of a country, the price of a stock... not all first digits are created equal.
