ds_list_cv

This script returns the coefficient of variation (CV) for the values in a given list.

Wikipedia:

The coefficient of variation (CV) is defined as the ratio of the standard deviation $\sigma$ to the mean $\mu$ :

$$\large c_v = \frac{\sigma}{\mu}$$

It shows the extent of variability in relation to the mean of the population.

ds_list_cv(id[,sample]): Returns the coefficient of variation for the values in a given list.
