Final answer:
Benford's law is false for digital analysis on databases of any size because it applies best to large, diverse datasets that contain a wide range of magnitudes.
Step-by-step explanation:
The statement that digital analysis using Benford's law can be performed on databases of any size is false. Benford's law only applies to data sets that are large and diverse enough to contain multiple orders of magnitude. The probability of occurrence of each digit in many naturally occurring collections of numbers is predicted by this law, with the first digit being the most likely to be a lower number (e.g., 1, 2, or 3). For the law to hold, the data set should ideally span several orders of magnitude and not be artificially constrained or contain assigned or identical numbers (such as phone numbers, or numbers with a fixed beginning digit). A small database may not follow Benford's distribution, especially if the data doesn't span multiple orders of magnitude.
