1	scale2(x, center = TRUE, scale = TRUE)

`x`	A numeric vector, matrix or data.frame
`center`	A logical indicating whether the scores in the columns in x should have their column means subtracted
`scale`	A logical indicating where the scores in the columns in x should be divided by their column standard deviations

The built-in R function scale uses the sample standard deviation when its scale option is set to TRUE. This function uses the population standard deviation instead.
