Description

These functions are used to signal out of control points in Shewhart charts.

Usage

shewhart.rules(object, limits = object$limits, run.length = qcc.options("run.length"))
beyond.limits(object, limits = object$limits)
violating.runs(object, run.length = qcc.options("run.length"))

Arguments

object

an object of class 'qcc'.

limits

run.length

the maximum value of a run before to signal a point as out of control.

Value
