S Control Chart.

This function builds a S control chart.

cchart.S(x, type = "n", m = NULL)

Arguments

x	The data to be plotted.
type	A character string specifying the type of S control chart to be plotted where "n" plots a S chart with normalized probability limits and "e" plots a S chart with exact limits.
m	The sample sizes. Only necessary in the control chart with exact (probability) limits.

Value

Return a S control chart.

Details

The exact limits are the alpha/2 and 1-alpha/2 quantiles of the S distribution which is proportional to the square root of a chi-square distribution.
