Hi Jose
1: As you will know, I was just teasing re the use of statistical tests for 
the cybermatrimonials data referred to by Cecil.

2: However, apart from the Chi test you suggested, there are (as you would 
well know), other relevant non-parametric tests for very small samples if 
one is not particularly bothered about wasting one's time!

Dear Cornel

1: So was I

2: It is NOT much of a time to do a Chi Square on a Table of 4

Maximum time (Manually) - about 4 minutes

With appropriate Software - about 23 secs including data entry

Since you mentioned "Small numbers", A Yates correction has to be applied to 
the Chi Square test.

Additional time - 1 minute

The rest..... Priceless (;-)

much love from here
