theory :a
z-score
(aka, a
standard score
) indicates how many an element is from the mean. a z-score can be calculated from the following formula.
z = (x - μ) / σ
where z is the z-score, x is the value of the element, μ is the population mean, and σ is the standard deviation.
here is how to interpret z-scores.
a z-score less than 0 represents an element less than the mean.
a z-score greater than 0 represents an element greater than the mean.
a z-score equal to 0 represents an element equal to the mean.
a z-score equal to 1 represents an element that is 1 standard deviation greater than the mean; a z-score equal to 2, 2 standard deviations greater than the mean; etc.
a z-score equal to -1 represents an element that is 1 standard deviation less than the mean; a z-score equal to -2, 2 standard deviations less than the mean; etc.
if the number of elements in the set is large, about 68% of the elements have a z-score between -1 and 1; about 95% have a z-score between -2 and 2; and about 99% have a z-score between -3 and 3.
