It is found that the masses, orbital periods and semimajor axis conform to Benfordós law quite well, but radii fail. It is also investigated the first digits occurrence corresponding to a given order of magnitude. We introduce a top function which can estimate all the probabilities of the first digit order-to-order.application/pdfenginfo:eu-repo/semantics/articleCiencias Exactas y NaturalesCiencias FísicasCiencias Básicas y Aplicadas
