ds_list_standard_score

Wikipedia:

In statistics, the standard score is the (signed) number of standard deviations an observation or datum is above the mean. Thus, a positive standard score indicates a datum above the mean, while a negative standard score indicates a datum below the mean. It 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.

The standard score of a raw score x is

$$\large z = {x- \mu \over \sigma}$$

where: \(\mu\) is the mean of the population; \(\sigma\) is the standard deviation of the population

ds_list_standard_score(id,pos)

Returns the standard score (z-score) of the value at a given position in a given list.
