Abstract
Calculations for a set of nuclear multifragmentation data are made using a canonical and a grand canonical model. The physics assumptions are identica l but the canonical model has an exact number of particles, whereas the gra nd canonical model has a varying number of particles, hence, is less exact. Interesting differences are found.
