p chart - OC Curve and ARL Example

Notes and Considerations

This example is based on the material in Statistical Quality Control (Montgomery).

It demonstrates two related concepts:

  1. An O-C chart for the binomial distribution.

  2. The calculation of ARL1 for the p-chart method.

The file "Example binom dist power and p-chart ARL.doc" attached at the bottom of this page shows step by step how to work the example using the R software package.

Data Set

No data set.

Analysis or Script File

An R script file is attached at the bottom of this page (p-chart O-C curve code.R.txt) that is based on the Montgomery example.
