Description

Explores Benford's Law which basically states that the number 1 appears more as the first digit in data sets than the number 2, and that number 2 appears more than number 3 etc... My project is based on one from the Nifty Assignments site: http://nifty.stanford.edu/2006/wolfman-pretid/


My program will read in a list of integers from file, and an integer n, and count the frequency that the digits 0-9 appear in the nth postion in the intergers of the list. The frequencies will be displayed in some way (maybe a graph).
