Verification

Every number is checked against its reference

A quality result is only worth signing if you can trust how it was calculated. Every tool on this site is checked against published standards, worked examples, hand-checked cases and specialised statistical software, and the checks run again on every change.

How we verify

1

Published worked examples

We run the same data as the standard or the textbook, and our result must equal the printed answer at the precision it is printed.

2

An independent second calculation

The same datasets go through specialised statistical software and independent statistical libraries, and every value is compared one by one.

3

Run again on every change

All checks run automatically on every update to the site, and a failing check is flagged straight away.

What is checked, tool by tool

Check counts come from the latest run, not from a document.

SPC Engine and control charts (I-MR, X̄-R, X̄-S)

221 checks
AIAG SPCMontgomery

Variable control charts: control limits, tests for special causes, Cp, Cpk, Pp, Ppk, Cpm (including a target off the midpoint), PPM and the normality test, on 12 runs. Attribute charts (p, np, c, u): centre line, control limits (stepped when subgroup sizes differ) and the tests for special causes, on 6 datasets. All compared value by value with specialised statistical software. The SPC Engine and the three chart pages are checked to give identical numbers.

Gage R&R

469 checks
AIAG MSA 4th ed.

Both methods (Average & Range and ANOVA) against the manual’s worked example, and 7 studies (the manual’s example among them) compared with specialised statistical software: variance components, % study variation, % tolerance, ndc, F and P.

Hettmansperger & SheatherAnderson-Darling

Every value of the graphical summary — quartiles, skewness, kurtosis, normality test and the confidence intervals for the mean, median and standard deviation — on 7 datasets from 3 to 100 readings, compared with specialised statistical software and an independent statistical library.
