CORR

Returns the correlation coefficient for non-null pairs in a group. It is computed for non-null pairs using the following formula:

COVAR_POP(y, x) / (STDDEV_POP(x) * STDDEV_POP(y))

Where x is the independent variable and y is the dependent variable.

See also:

COVAR_POP , STDDEV_POP

Syntax

Syntax when used as an aggregate function:

CORR( y , x ) 
Copy

Syntax when used as a window function:

CORR( y , x ) OVER ( [ PARTITION BY <expr3> ] ) 
Copy

Usage notes

  • DISTINCT is not supported for this function.

  • When this function is called as a window function, it does not support:

    • An ORDER BY clause within the OVER clause.

    • Explicit window frames.

Examples

CREATE OR REPLACE TABLE aggr(k int, v decimal(10,2), v2 decimal(10, 2)); INSERT INTO aggr VALUES(1, 10, NULL); INSERT INTO aggr VALUES(2, 10, 11), (2, 20, 22), (2, 25, NULL), (2, 30, 35);  SELECT * FROM aggr; 
Copy

SELECT k, CORR(v, v2) FROM aggr GROUP BY k;
