Another representation is shown in
Figure 15-29
which shows a plot of
the distribution of the percentages for the leading digits observed in the
data set for the heights of the tallest structures in the world superimposed
on those for Benford’s Law. Observe there are some deviations of the
percentages. In particular, there was a large deviation for the leading
digit of five.
