====Comparing====

Available from the [[the_capture_list|capture list]], this page lets you **compare** the chosen captures.

For example, if you were keeping track of the different batches of product you were producing, you could use this function to find out the root cause of a quality issue.

===Min/Max Values===

At the top of the page is a list of //minimum// and //maximum// values for each captured point of data. Note that this will only display values that actually **change** across the different captures - if the value is identical for every capture, it simply won't appear in the list.

Clicking on a minimum or maximum amount will take you to the matching capture [[capture detail|details]].

It's important to remember that the minimum values //will not always belong to the same day/shift/batch/event//.

===Distribution===

If you are interested in analysing the distribution of values against //other// values, click on the name of one of the captured attributes.

This will take you to the [[capture data distribution|data distribution]] page.

===PCC Chart===

Below the min/max values is a Parallel Coordinate Chart showing how consistent each of the captures has been.

When you spot outliers on this chart, it might indicate a key point of difference that could highlight problems or opportunities.
