I have had trouble running a series of simple exact tests. Whenever my
tables go beyond 2x2 to tables such as the example below, STATA grinds to a
virtual halt. I waited a half hour before pressing the "break" button.
tab score arm, exact

Score | Lifestyle Education | Total
-----------+----------------------+----------
0 | 38 54 | 92
1 | 73 73 | 146
2 | 56 58 | 114
3 | 29 37 | 66
4 | 21 20 | 41
5 | 6 3 | 9
6 | 3 3 | 6
-----------+----------------------+----------
Total | 226 248 | 474
This is as far as STATA gets before it seems to stop.
I am using STATA v8.2, on a PIII PC with 512mb of RAM running XP
Professional.
