RelVar

Whereas standard deviation and variance are measures of absolute variance, the coefficient of variation is a measure of relative variance. This is generally useful to compare several data sets. It can also be used as a simple quality indicator. The definition used here is ratio of standard deviation to mean value expressed as percentage.

This is just a one-line utility but I use it often because it's convenient - saves typing.
