Benford's law is a key tool for detecting irregularities and potential manipulations in numerical data sets. This law describes the probability of the appearance of the first digits in large sets of numerical values, which allows for the identification of anomalies and verification of authenticity in them. The subject of this paper is the applicati...

Benford's law, known as the law of the first digit, is used as a basic method to identify possible manipulation, or errors dеtection, in a large data set. Namely, according to that law, the first digits of the corresponding data set appear with a frequency determined according to the decreasing logarithmic law, which is contrary to the intuition ab...
