Two generalized Benford distributions are considered, namely the two-sided power Benford distribution and the new Pareto Benford distribution. The fitting capabilities of these generalized Benford distributions are illustrated and compared at some interesting and important integer sequences.10 pages, 3 tablesStatistics TheoryNumber Theory11B73, 11B83, 11K31, 62E15, 62E17Generalizing Benford's law using power laws: application to integer sequencestext
