1. Scale invariant : A system remain unchanged when multiplied by a constant is
called Scale invariant
2. Base invariance : Groups of numbers that follow Benford’s law in one base
also follow Benford’s law if converted into another base
Analysis of Benford's law
1. Ones Scaling test : One scaling test determines the fraction of numbers
having a leading digit of one , as the set of numbers is repeatedly multiplied
by a constant slightly greater than unity such as 1.01. If the set of numbers
follow Benford’s law, the fraction will remain close to 0.301

2. Benford's law as a convolution :
Fourier transforms of pdf(g), sf(g), and ost(g), as PDF(f), SF(f), and OST(f)
