Correlation coefficents computation

Computation of correlation coefficients.

Usage

calc_correlation(x, y, type = c("pearson", "kendall", "spearman"))

Arguments

x

A numeric vector

y

A numeric vector

type

A character single value, that is the type of the correlation to be computed

Value

A numeric single value with the computed value.

Details

Currently, it is possible to compute the following metrics:

- Kendall's Tau correlation coefficient
- Pearson linear correlation coefficient
- Spearmann correlation coefficient

Examples

x <- rnorm(100,1)

calc_correlation(x,x)
#> [1] 1
