Quantlet:		spcewma2ad
Description:		Computes the Average Delays of a two-sided EWMA chart for a given critical value and for various expected values mu. The data is normally distributed with variance 1.

Usage:	`ad = spcewma2ad (mu, lambda, c, r)`
Input:
	`mu`	n x 1 vector representing the expected values of the user-defined random variable
	`lambda`	scalar representing the smoothing parameter
	`c`	scalar, critical value
	`r`	scalar, matrix dimension of the approximating two-dimensional Markov chain
Output:
	`ad`	n x 1 vector containing the average delays of a two-sided EWMA chart

Note:

The algorithm is based on the Brook/Evans approach.

Example:

; ADs of a two-sided EWMA chart for different expectes values ; mu, smoothing parameters lambda = 0.5 and matrix dimension 50 ;(of the approximating two-dimensional Markov chain): library("spc") mu =(0:4)/4 c = spcewma2c(100,0.5,50) ad = spcewma2ad(mu,0.5,c,50) mu~ad
