The distribution of the number of different locally maximal elements in a random sample is found, where the sampling is from a continuous population of real numbers. This distribution has application in certain nonparametric tests; the problem of finding the distribution may be regarded as identical with the enumeration of permutations according to the number of distinct locally maximal elements.
