How to use

How to use the Normalize / Scale

  1. Paste numbers separated by commas, spaces or new lines.
  2. Click Scale.
  3. Read the min-max values in the 0 to 1 range.
  4. Read the z-scores, which have mean 0 and standard deviation 1.
Worked example

An example, step by step

You enter

10, 20, 30, 40, 50

The tool shows

Mean 30, std 14.1421; min-max 0, 0.25, 0.5, 0.75, 1; z-scores -1.414, -0.707, 0, 0.707, 1.414

FAQ

Questions about the Normalize / Scale

When should I use min-max scaling instead of z-score?

Use min-max when a model needs inputs in a fixed range, such as image pixels or some neural networks. Use z-score standardization when features have different units or outliers, or for models that assume centred data.

What formula does min-max normalization use?

Each value becomes (x minus min) divided by (max minus min), so the smallest value maps to 0 and the largest to 1.

Which standard deviation does the z-score here use?

The population standard deviation (dividing by n), which matches the default in common scalers such as scikit-learn StandardScaler.

Is the Normalize / Scale free and private?

Yes. It is free, needs no sign-up and runs entirely in your browser, so what you type is not uploaded. You only sign in if you want to email a result to yourself or save it to your CareerByteCode profile.
