======Top 20 European Languages based on Estimated Number of Native Speakers Evaluation====== The results show that when changing the count from 0 to 1, for two of the three code versions and their average value, English was the closest language to the Somerton Man code. Kurdish, a language spoken in some parts of Turkey, was found to be the closest language to the code version with 6 Ms, however, considering Kurdish is not a common language, and based on the average results, it is safe to say that English was the closest language to the code using this method. When changing the frequency from 0 to 0.0001, the results deviated from those obtained using a count of 1. This caused English to produce a higher chi-squared value and for other languages to produce lower-chi squared values, causing Kurdish to have the lowest chi-squared value in all cases, and for English to become the third closest language in the average results. This may be evidence to suggest that upon further inspection, the ''Universal Declaration of Human Rights'' may not be a suitable base text for use with the chi-squared method, irrespective of insufficient sample size.
