Abstract: For D a natural number that is not a perfect square and for k a non-zero integer, consider the subset ℤk(√D) of the quadratic integer ring ℤ(√D) consisting of elements x+y√D for which x2−Dy2=k . For each k such that the set ℤk(√D) is nonempty, ℤk(√D) has a natural arrangement into a sequence for which the corresponding sequence of integers x, as well as the corresponding sequence of integers y, are strong Benford sequences.
