For this reason, power-laws in empirical data are often studied by plotting the logarithm (in this paper, when we word correspond to the natural - neperian - logarithm function) of the histogram as a function of the logarithm of the values of the random variable, and doing a linear regression to fit an affine line to through the data points (usually using a least-squares algorithm).
