Control Chart Wizard – Median And Range: If the sample size is relatively small (e.g., less than 10-15) and the median is known, we can display how well a process is centered using the median or middle value. In contrast to the X-Bar and R control chart, this chart is useful when you would like to see less influence by data outliers. This can be an advantage or a disadvantage depending on your objective. The range of a sample is simply the difference between the largest and smallest observation. The Median and R control chart is used with continuous/variable data when subgroup or sample size is between 2 and 15.

Average And Range – X-Bar and R: If the sample size is relatively small (e.g., less than 10-15), we can use the range instead of the standard deviation of a sample to construct control charts on X-Bar (arithmetic mean) and the range, R. The range of a sample is simply the difference between the largest and smallest observation. The X-bar and R control chart is used with continuous/variable data when subgroup or sample size is between 2 and 15.
