=====Initial Validation=====
First of all, the same test that was initially run in Task 1 on the statistics obtained from the English translation of the ''Universal Declaration of Human Rights'' (with letters with frequency 0 modified to 0.0001) as a baseline check were also run on the new statistics gathered from the novel: ''The Life of the Spider'' by J. Henri Fabre<ref>J. H. Fabre. (2005, March 22). The Life of the Spider [Online]. Available: https://www.gutenberg.org/ebooks/1887</ref>, used as our English base text found on ''Project Gutenberg'', as a means of comparison between the base texts.  The Somerton man code, 44 letter samples from a Thomas Hardy novel acting as an English control <ref>T Hardy. 2005. Tess of the d’Urbervilles (11th Edition) [online]. Available: https://ia801409.us.archive.org/24/items/tessofthedurberv00110gut/110-8.txt.</ref> as well as a French sample, German sample, and Zapoteco sample from the ''Universal Declaration of Human Rights'' were all compared to both sets of data and the results can be seen in Figure 12.
