#### Standard score(z-score)
In statistics, the standard score is the signed number of standard deviations by which the value of
an observation or data point is above the mean value of what is being observed or measured. Observed
values above the mean have positive standard scores, while values below the mean have negative
standard scores. The standard score is a dimensionless quantity obtained by subtracting the population
mean from an individual raw score and then dividing the difference by the population standard deviation.
This conversion process is called standardizing or normalizing (however, "normalizing" can refer to
many types of ratios; see normalization for more).
