#' Absolute values of gradients (apd's) of kernel regressions of x on y when
#' both x and y are standardized and control variables are present.
#'
#' 1) standardize the data to force mean zero and variance unity, 2) kernel
#' regress x on y and a matrix of control variables,
#' with the option `gradients = TRUE' and finally 3) compute
#' the absolute values of gradients
#'
#' The first argument is assumed to be the dependent variable. If
#' \code{abs_stdapdC(x,y)} is used, you are regressing x on y (not the usual y
#' on x). The regressors can be a matrix with 2 or more columns. The missing values
#' are suitably ignored by the standardization.
#'
#' @param x {vector of data on the dependent variable}
#' @param y {data on the regressors which can be a matrix}
#' @param ctrl {Data matrix on the control variable(s) beyond causal path issues}
#' @importFrom stats sd
#' @return Absolute values of kernel regression gradients are returned after
#' standardizing the data on both sides so that the magnitudes of amorphous
#' partial derivatives (apd's) are comparable between regression of x on y on
#' the one hand and regression of y on x on the other.
