Graphics, Figures & Tables ⇒ preventing a line-break before a table

[zillions]

I would like to have some text and then a small 2x2 table (tabular) on the same line. Now, there is an automatic line-break that's causing the table to be on the next line.

I read on another forum that ~ will prevent a line-break for text, but it doesn't seem to work in this situation.

I also thought that enclosing both the text and the table inside another table could work, but that gives some other errors.

Is there a straightforward way to accomplish this?

Thanks!

Just provide a minimal working example (MWE). Get used to this process for future requests.
