STANDARDIZE

STANDARDIZE: Returns the z-score of `x` relative to a mean and standard deviation.

Summary

STANDARDIZE computes (x - mean) / standard_dev.

Remarks

  • standard_dev must be strictly greater than 0.
  • Returns #NUM! when standard_dev <= 0.
  • Positive output means x is above the mean; negative output means below.
  • Invalid numeric coercions propagate as spreadsheet errors.
