Abstract

This is the second of two articles examining the statistical characteristics of the support for a word square (the sample size needed to produce, on the average, a single word square). In the preceding article, published in the August 1993 Word Ways, a method was developed for calculating the support from small sample sizes - ones large enough to typically produce only a few squares, rather than the thousands of millions found by Chris Long.
