Benford’s law can uncover fictitious numbers in random data sets because data manipulated for tax evasion purposes will likely deviate from Benford’s law, and in that case it is supposed that there had been a tax fraud act.

This app is LOADED with RELEVANT, HELPFUL, AND EDUCATIONAL material. It is creatively intellectual, yet minimal enough to not overstimulate and create a learning block. I am exceptionally impressed with this app!
