[@paolo_yunnykh]

Hi! Thanks for the video! You said that the package can perform a last digit test. But how? The package description says nothing about it.

[@sophiekiv9169]

Hello thank you for sharing this, but the Benford's Law Test data is not available on your link. Could you possibly share that again with us? Thanks

[@SpencerPaoHere]

Dang. Yeah. That link is dead. Unfortunatley, I don't know where a 'free' version of the article may be located. But, this is the document: www.scribd.com/document/404013978/Using-Benford-s-Law-2018-Final-Extract
