Sumari:In this paper, is presented in a general way a mathematical curiosity that quickly attracts attention per se, which describes a peculiar pattern that the first digits of data obtained from various ordinary situations and many real processes comply, known as Benford’s Law or the Significant-Digit Phenomenon. In addition to analyzing and reproducing the fulfillment of this singular mathematical principle that the significant digits for some typical examples found in the literature follow, the fulfillment of this law in cases of particular interest is also analyzed, and possible potential applications are described.
