Popis:	A simple versatile combinatorial test is given for the null hypothesis that the two kinds of responses in a sequence of binary random variables are both equiprobable and randomly distributed. It is sensitive to a preponderance of either kind of response in either of two pre-selected halves of the positions of the sequence, e.g., the right half vs. the left, or the center vs. both ends. It combines the nice features of being, on the one hand, relatively assumption free and easy to apply and, on the other hand, sensitive to basic patterns underlying a poor fit of the empirical distribution to a theoretical model.
