The Mathematical Basis and Applications of Benford's Law in Real-World Datasets

#Benford's Law#Scale Invariance#Fraud Detection#Logarithmic Distribution

Benford's Law describes the frequency distribution of first-digit occurrences in naturally occurring data, which arises because real-world measurements span many orders of magnitude. This distribution is scale-invariant and applies broadly to measurements like financial data, populations, and physical constants.
