How to calculate coefficient of variation for every element in Matrix?

49 views (last 30 days)
Hi,
I'm trying to calculate coefficient of variation for every elemnt in an array but I kept getting this error:
Error using reshape
Product of known dimensions, 521250, not divisible into total number of elements, 1.
here is my code:
(datan) is my raw data with the length of 521250
tm= ceil(length (datan));
mn= mean(reshape([datan(:)],tm,[]));
sd=std(reshape([datan(:)],tm,[]));
cv=reshape((sd./mn)*100,[],tm);
Any help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance!

cv=std(datan,0,'all')/mean(datan,'all');

Thanks for the answer. But I'm hoping to get an array of cv as the same size as the datan. So, my ultimate goal is tha I can see how the cv changes over time. However, from the line I got from you, I only get one value which is not what I'm trying to do. Thanks again.
