Calculate the Relative Standard Error of a numeric vector

Description

Calculates relative standard error of a vector of numbers.

Usage

calculate_rse(x)

Arguments

x

The numeric vector of numbers from which relative standard error should be calculated.

Details

Relative standard error is returned as a proportion. It is sometimes also referred to as "proportional standard error."

Relative standard error is the standard error divided by the mean:

Relative Standard Error = \frac{\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}}}{\bar{x}}

Value

This function returns a single value that is the relative standard error of a vector of numbers.
