That is way I am going to use two sample Kolmogorov-Smirnov test. Another clarification is needed. KS test in general (and in theory) should be used for continuous distributions. But in our case we can easily say that we observe our distribution in integers only (rounding), and the whole rest is easily estimated. Regards, Mariusz
