Correct answer: D. Either of the above

  • A. There is an unusually large number of runs
  • B. There is an unusually small number of runs
  • C. None of these

Random sequences tend to produce a typical number of runs; both an unusually small number and an unusually large number indicate nonrandom ordering. Therefore, either extreme can lead to rejection of randomness.
