Operating Characteristic Curve
A graph used to determine the probability of accepting lots as a function of the lots’ or processes’ quality level when using various sampling plans. Three are three types: Type A curves, which give the probability of acceptance for an individual lot coming from finite production (will not continue in the future); Type B curves, which give the probability of acceptance for lots coming from a continuous process; and Type C curves, which, for a continuous sampling plan, give the long-run percentage of product accepted during the sampling phase
