In the Torah

A name of more than one word is searched one word at a time, as the laboratory does: the counts on this page are for ניל, and ארמסטרונג has its own figure under the other spellings, each beside its chance figure.

At skips 2–5,000, ניל appears 1,015,422 times in the Torah; chance alone would give about 1,017,436, so the count is in line with chance.

The shortest skip at which ניל appears in the Torah is 2 — the first at Genesis 1:6, reading forward.

At every skip the Torah allows (2–152,424), ניל is found 15,135,886 times; chance alone would give about 15,769,813.

A three-letter spelling is common at these skips: in a text of 304,850 letters chance alone produces about 1,017,436 of it, so a large count is expected.
