Abstract
In the present note we study the interrelations between the sets of so-called typical numbers and numbers that are normal in base two. Employing results by Nakai and Shiokawa, we exhibit examples of numbers that belong to one set but do not belong to the other and vice versa. Moreover, we demonstrate the set of typical numbers is in the Borel hierarchy, i.e., it can be expressed as the union of countably many Using the result by Ki and Linton that asserts the same for normal numbers, we examine the Borel complexity of the set of typical numbers that are not normal, proving that it belongs to the class.
