| Abstract: | An algorithm is developed for calculating the probability distribution of the number of matches between two specified rows of a matrix of zeroes and ones. Cases covered include row totals fixed, column totals fixed, and column totals and the two specified rows' totals fixed. The results are applied to presence-absence data on six species of ground finches on 23 Galàpagos islands and two constructed examples. |
