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 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.
