@thambisettyThanks for the reply!

This mentions mostly for numeric fields, I am looking for Zscore or histogram for string(character) field.

z--score, you should apply standard deviation to see how the values are deviating. with out count of strings, I don't know how you calculate zscore, or histogram.
