A normal number is one whose decimal expansion (or expansion to some base other than 10) contains all possible finite configurations of digits roughly with their expected frequencies. More formally, let N(α; b, a, x) = #{1 ≤ n ≤ x : the nth digit in the base-b expansion of α is a} (1) denote the counting function of the occurrences of the digit a (0 ≤ a < b) in the b-ary expansion of the real n...
