Hey Isba, nice find. This was a cool little experiment that I tried to test my memory of numbers. Personally I think I have a pretty good memorization of numbers so I tried the experiment, and my results were not as theorized. I was able to remember the first number off-course, but the last number seemed to be my worst score. The numbers I remembered the most were the first number, the fourth number( I tend to memorize numbers in fours, so after four, it is like I begin my memorization again) and the middle numbers were pretty precise in the resulted score. But I really think it depends on a persons method of memorizing, because in my situation, I remember numbers by fours just like the numbers on the credit card and maybe phone numbers in which they are separated in three's. But there is definitely a reason for why many companies and associations, and or organizations let you memorize important numbers in a certain amount of numbers in a group of 3 or 4 because it is easier for our memory motors and the brain can only remember so many numbers in a category.
