Has anyone heard of a geometric CV (co-efficient of variation).
I know what a geometric mean and SD are.
I have some test data and it appears that the geometric CV is
the SD of log-transformed data (without anti-logging again).
This is then multiplied by 100 to convert to a percentage.
Is this correct???
