i have to score my data fro scale 0 to 10 on the basis of the variable value for each year.

i.e data of GDP per capita growth rate ,if the value of GDP per capita growth for a specific year is 3.25 how can i transform this value into scoring 0 to 10.

  • One possibility is MinMax scaling, e.g. in R, this shall be along function(x){(10*x-min(x))/(max(x)-min(x))} – tagoma Nov 05 '17 at 09:16

There are several methods to normalize data each with its own assumptions about the data. I'm guessing an approach similar to this post would work for you. That is: $$z_i=\frac{10(x_i-\min(x))}{\max(x)-\min(x)}$$
