benford's law aint 4 random events like digit lottories.. its for stats like street #s, income etc.. we start counting with 1 thats why digit 1 appears to be biased..

from the original lp post

Digit Frequency

Percent

1 0.3010 30.10%

2 0.1761 17.61%

3 0.1249 12.49%

4 0.0969 9.69%

5 0.0792 7.92%

6 0.0669 6.69%

7 0.0580 5.80%

8 0.0512 5.12%

9 0... [ More ]

I'm not sure which one of these is the original.

I may have created a file for just the Florida Pick 3 game.

You will need to substitute your Pick 3 draws.

Has anyone created an excel workbook applying Benford's Law to any of the lottery games? I was looking for a pick 3 one but I will take any! I think i would be able to adapted to the pick 3, If I had a guide.

Here is a link where the LP member Thoth Mentioned it.
