How the Calculator Works

The calculator uses the Pearson correlation coefficient formula:

r = Σ[(x − x̄)(y − ȳ)]  
    ---------------------
    √(Σ(x − x̄)² × Σ(y − ȳ)²)
  

The result ranges from −1 to +1:
• +1 = perfect positive correlation
• 0 = no correlation
• −1 = perfect negative correlation

Example

X: 1, 2, 3, 4  
Y: 2, 3, 5, 6  

Possible Output:
Correlation (r) = 0.9487
