Standard Deviation

Does anyone understand SD well enough to explain how the hell I use it?

IE) I have a mean of 100 (baseline) and need to find the control limits for the graph in +-2 with an SD of 4.

they way i just learned is that the control limits are either set by the instructor or are +/- 2.66times(average of the moving ranges) and "moving range" being the absolute value of the difference between two consecutive data points plotted in the trend chart.

then there's some other control limits that are for ideal cases(which i think is yours)that are +/- (#ofS.D.'s), which i think is what you need. so put all your data in an excel spread sheet make it tell you the standard deviation and I think your control limits would be +/-(4 times whatever# excel gives you).

i could be wrong but i dont think i am.

Haha. I appreciate the vote of confidence Arnel, but I'll be fucked if I can do any sort of math that's even remotely complicated.

Got it!
SD x (the + value) --> + the mean
(4 x 2 = 8 + 100 = 108,92)
