In the Torah

At skips 2–5,000, ריו appears 1,856,573 times in the Torah — 0.5% more than the 1,847,928 chance alone would give; the probability of 1,856,573 or more by chance alone is 1.0 × 10⁻¹⁰.

The shortest skip at which ריו appears in the Torah is 2 — the first at Genesis 1:4, reading forward.

At every skip the Torah allows (2–152,424), ריו is found 27,601,633 times; chance alone would give about 28,642,090.

A three-letter spelling is common at these skips: in a text of 304,850 letters chance alone produces about 1,847,928 of it, so a large count is expected.
