cor()
function in R Language is used to measure the correlation coefficient value between two vectors.
Syntax: cor(x, y, method)
Parameters:
x, y: Data vectors
method: Type of method to be used
Example 1:
# Data vectors x < - c( 1 , 3 , 5 , 10 )
y < - c( 2 , 4 , 6 , 20 )
# Print covariance using Pearson method print (cor(x, y, method = "pearson" ))
|
Output:
[1] 0.9724702
Example 2:
# Data vectors x < - c( 1 , 3 , 5 , 10 )
y < - c( 2 , 4 , 6 , 20 )
# Print covariance using Pearson method print (cor(x, y, method = "kendall" ))
|
Output:
[1] 1
Example 3:
# Data vectors x < - c( 1 , 3 , 5 , 10 )
y < - c( 2 , 4 , 6 , 20 )
# Print covariance using Pearson method print (cor(x, y, method = "spearman" ))
|
Output:
[1] 1
