Ex no :20 PLOTTING RUN CHARTS Date Aim: To create the run chart for given data in Minitab.
Experiment Data: A quality engineer wants to evaluate how consistently a radon detection device measures the amount of radon. The engineer measures the radon level twice a day for 20 days. Construct a run chart to look for evidence of non-random patterns in the radon measurements from the membrane devices.
