“You are full of sh**.”

I looked up from my lunch in surprise. I had been telling the table at the burrito place about this weird statistical thing called “Benford’s Law” that I had read about.

“You are saying that if I look at the first digit of any number it is 20% likely to be a 1”.

I said yes for most collection of numbers.

“Addresses?”

Yes.

“File sizes?”

Absolutely, I responded. Then I told them that this holds true if you change the numbers into hexadecimal.

“You’re a moron.”
