Tala talar
30.jun 2003 06:00 Av: Dagny Holm , Frilanser Rekneskapsstudentane talde og sveitta, før dei endeleg fekk levert resultata til læraren. Han kikka raskt gjennom bunken med svar. Så stoppa han og kikka på ei av oppgåvene ein gong til. Her var det noko som ikkje stemde. Ein av elevane hadde brukt rekneskapen frå svogerens butikk. Men denne svogeren måtte ha triksa med tala. For rekneskapstala følgde ikkje Benfords lov. Benfords lov er ikkje ei lov som handlar om at det er ulovleg å snyte på skatten eller skrive falske rekneskapar. Benfords lov er ei matematisk lov, altså ei lov som handlar om noko som stadig tek seg opp att i matematikken. Og Benfords lov lyder omtrent slik: Når vi menneske måler eller tel noko og resultatet blir eit tal på minst fire siffer, så begynner omtrent 30 % av tala med 1. Nesten 18 % begynner med 2, og så fell prosenten gradvis, heilt ned til 4,6 % for dei tala som begynner med 9. Skitne sider Benfords lov ble oppdaget av Simon Newcomb (1835-1909) Benfords lov gjeld for så forskjellige ting som rekneskapar, innbyggjartal, cricket-resultat, gatenummer og avstandar i verdsrommet. Det veit vi fordi Frank Benford undersøkte meir enn 20 000 slike tal i 1938. Lova fekk Benfords namn, men det var ikkje han som oppdaga henne. Benfords lov vart oppdaga tilfeldig i 1881 – av den amerikanske astronomen Simon Newcomb.

Már gyermekkorában elkápráztatott mindenkit különleges matematikai tehetségével, amelyet hosszú évek szorgalmas munkájával gyümölcsöztetett a csillagászat hasznára, mint az égimechanikai számítások mestere. Elméleti tudásánál, szorgalmánál és elképesztõ munkabírásánál talán csak szervezõi talentuma volt nagyobb. Számos jelentõs amerikai csillagvizsgáló születésénél bábáskodott.

Artikelen Dit artikel is een eerbetoon aan mijn persoonlijke "held" waar het gaat om de formules van de theoretische planetenberekening en de vele formules ten aanzien van andere astronomische berekeningen.
Een groot deel van dit artikel vindt u terug op de laatste bladzijde van de handleidingen van de computerprogramma's Newcomb-V1 en Newcomb-V2 die door mij zijn gemaakt. De astronomische gedeelten uit de computerprogramma's Newcomb-V1 en -V2 bestaan voornamelijk uit de formules van Simon Newcomb voor wat betreft de berekeningen van Zon, Mercurius, Venus, Mars, Uranus en Neptunus. Voor de overige planeten en de Maan zijn andere theorieën gebruikt, die nauwkeuriger zijn en voor een grotere tijdsperiode geldigheid hebben. Simon Newcomb Simon Newcomb werd op 12 maart 1835 in Wallace, Nova Scotia, Canada geboren. Hoewel hij geen formele opleiding had gehad, begon hij in 1854 zelf aan een studie wiskunde in de bibliotheek van Washington. Hij kreeg een baan als rekenaar in 1857 aan het American Nautical Almanac Office. Newcomb studeerde aan de Harvard Universiteit en studeerde er in 1858 af. In 1861 werd Newcomb aangesteld bij het Naval Observatory te Washington.

EXISTING NATIONAL HISTORIC LANDMARKS FOR ASTRONOMY
The 1987 edition of History and Prehistory in the National Park System and the National Historic Landmarks Program lists only two sites as National Historic Landmarks because of their significance in the history of astronomythe Edwin P. Hubble House and the Lowell Observatory. ARIZONA Lowell Observatory
1 mile west of Flagstaff, Arizona Astronomical research here has contributed greatly to the knowledge of the universe. First evidence of expansion of the universe was obtained at Lowell in 1912. In 1930 astronomer Clyde Tombaugh used a special wide-angle 13-inch astrographic telescope to discover the planet Pluto. NHL designated December 21, 1965. CALIFORNIA Hubble (Edwin) House
1340 Woodstock Road
San Marino, Los Angeles County
California Home of one of America's greatest 20th century astronomers who, among other accomplishments, discovered extragalactic nebulae and their recession from each other. NHL designated December 8, 1976.
EXISTING NATIONAL HISTORIC LANDMARKS IN OTHER THEMES The National Historic Landmarks listed below were all identified as significant in other themes. These sites should also be listed for astronomy in addition to their primary themes.
