Σύνοψη	Dunn's test is a nonparametric post-hoc procedure introduced by Olive Jean Dunn in 1964 to identify which specific pairs of groups differ significantly after a Kruskal-Wallis test has returned a significant overall result. It compares groups pairwise using rank sums and applies a multiple-comparison correction — most commonly Bonferroni or Holm — to control the family-wise error rate.	The Mann-Whitney U test is the nonparametric alternative to the independent samples t-test, comparing two independent groups by ranking all observations together rather than relying on their means. It was introduced by H. B. Mann and D. R. Whitney in 1947 and does not require the data to be normally distributed.
