Tuesday - Thursday (2/25/20 - 2/27/20)

Agenda:

  • Last day for missing assignments before interim
  • Benford's Law Assignment
    1. Read and watch Benford's Law and Fraud Detection
    2. Further reading Benford's Law
    3. Research and find a set of naturally occurring numbers. Here are some ideas, but you can come up with your own:
    4. Create a text file that contains a list of your numbers (try to have a list of ~1000 numbers if possible)
      • There are many different ways to do this...some people use Excel, Google Sheets, Sublime, Notepad, etc.
    5. Write a program that loads your text file, reads the data, extracts the leading digit(s) of the data set, and displays each digit's frequency as a percentage
    6. Additional challenges:
      • Look for any repeating patterns in your code and see if you can refactor your code to eliminate "bad code"
      • Use Processing to load a file, determine the frequencies, and then visually display a bar graph (note: read the Processing documentation to load a file)
