Activity: Code It! (Process Indices)

An in-class activity from the course slides — reproduced here so you can find it again after class.

📋 What to do

  1. Learning Check.
  2. A manufacturer of granola bars is aiming for a weight of 2 ounces (oz), plus or minus 0.05 oz. Suppose the standard deviation of our granola bar machine is 0.02 oz, and the mean weight is 2.01 oz.
  3. What's the process capability index? (I.e. How many times greater is the expected variation than the observed variation?)

📮 Submit

Reminder: Submit your code on CANVAS (1 pt) — graded on completion. (Individual)

Note: work from this page — it is where the activity and its links (slide decks, shared materials) are maintained, and details may still be refined before class. Submission happens on Canvas, and so do the due date and your grade.
