Introduction

qcc is a package for statistical process control and control charts built based on the qcc package, with new functions allowing the use of beta control charts.

This package allows the user to:

As the package uses the qcc package as the basis for building the graphics, all qcc functions and utilities also work on bcc. For more informations please consider visiting https://luca-scr.github.io/qcc/.

Application

You can use bcc in two basic ways:

Beta Charts

Beta Chart for discrete data

data("Montgomery2005")
bcc(data=Montgomery2005$Defective, sizes = Montgomery2005$Sample, type=1)

Beta chart for continuos data

data("Drapper1998data")
bcc(data = Drapper1998data, type = "2")

#> List of 11
#>  $ call            : language qcc(data = data, type = "beta.p", center = center, std.dev = std.dev,      limits = limits, data.name = data.name| __truncated__ ...
#>  $ type            : chr "beta.p"
#>  $ data.name       : chr "data"
#>  $ data            : num [1:34, 1] 1 1 1 0.998 1 ...
#>   ..- attr(*, "dimnames")=List of 2
#>  $ statistics      : Named num [1:34] 1 1 1 0.998 1 ...
#>   ..- attr(*, "names")= chr [1:34] "1" "2" "3" "4" ...
#>  $ sizes           : int [1:34] 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 ...
#>  $ center          : num 0.999
#>  $ std.dev         : num 0.000936
#>  $ confidence.level: num 0.9
#>  $ limits          : num [1, 1:2] 0.994 1
#>   ..- attr(*, "dimnames")=List of 2
#>  $ violations      :List of 2
#>  - attr(*, "class")= chr "qcc"
