PEARSON

Definition of PEARSON

Calculates r, the Pearson product-moment correlation coefficient of a dataset.

Sample Usage

PEARSON(A2:A100,B2:B100)

Syntax

PEARSON(data_y, data_x)

  • data_y - The range representing the array or matrix of dependent data.

  • data_x - The range representing the array or matrix of independent data.

Notes

  • Any text encountered in the value arguments will be ignored.

  • PEARSON is synonymous with CORREL.
