Correlation Coefficient Calculator
Calculate Pearson correlation coefficient to measure the strength of relationships between variables.
Correlation Coefficient Calculator
Calculate Pearson correlation coefficient to measure the strength of relationships between variables
Data Input
📋 Instructions
- • Enter X and Y values separated by commas
- • Both arrays must have the same number of values
- • Minimum 2 data points required
- • Values should be numeric (decimals allowed)
- • Use sample data buttons to see examples
💡 Correlation Tips
- • Correlation ≠ Causation - correlation doesn't prove cause and effect
- • Range: Correlation coefficient ranges from -1 to +1
- • Positive: As X increases, Y tends to increase
- • Negative: As X increases, Y tends to decrease
- • Zero: No linear relationship between variables
- • Outliers can significantly affect correlation
About This Calculator
Measure the strength and direction of a linear relationship between two variables with a clear correlation score.
Formula
Pearson r = cov(X, Y) / (σx × σy).
Example
Input ad spend and sales points to see whether they move together positively or negatively.
When to Use
- Data analysis and reporting
- A/B and experiment review
- Market and trend studies
Best Practices
- Validate units and assumptions before interpreting output.
- Compare at least two scenarios to avoid single-point bias.
- Use results as decision support, then cross-check critical outcomes.
