Module spc 

Statistical Process Control (SPC) charts.

Provides control chart implementations for both variables and attributes data.

Variables Charts

• XBarRChart — X-bar and Range chart for subgroup data (n=2..10)
• XBarSChart — X-bar and Standard Deviation chart for subgroup data (n=2..10)
• IndividualMRChart — Individual and Moving Range chart for individual observations

Attributes Charts

• PChart — Proportion nonconforming (variable sample size)
• NPChart — Count of nonconforming items (constant sample size)
• CChart — Count of defects per unit (constant area of opportunity)
• UChart — Defects per unit (variable area of opportunity)

Run Rules

• WesternElectricRules — 4 classic run rules
• NelsonRules — 8 rules (superset of Western Electric)
