IStatistics.Rsq

Syntax

Rsq(KnownYs: Array; KnownXs: Array): Double;

Parameters

KnownYs. Independent series.

KnownXs. Dependent series.

Description

The Rsq method returns the squared Pearson correlation coefficient (r^2).

Comments

For correct calculation the KnownYs and KnownXs series:

Should have equal number of points.
Should be non-constant.
Should contain more than three points.

Example

To execute the example, add a link to the Stat system assembly.

Sub userProc;
Var
    st: Statistics;
    d0: Double;
    y, x: Array Of Double;
Begin
    y := New Double[10];
    y[00] := 1.6; y[05] := 2.1;
    y[01] := 1.7; y[06] := 2.2;
    y[02] := 1.8; y[07] := 2.3;
    y[03] := 1.9; y[08] := 2.4;
    y[04] := 2; y[09] := 2.8;
    x := New Double[10];
    x[00] := 2; x[05] := 6;
    x[01] := 4; x[06] := 15;
    x[02] := 2; x[07] := 17;
    x[03] := 5; x[08] := 14;
    x[04] := 12; x[09] := 3;
    st := New Statistics.Create;
    d0 := st.Rsq(y, x);
        If st.Status <> 0 Then
    Debug.WriteLine(st.Errors);
    Else
        Debug.WriteLine("Squared Pearson coefficient: " + d0.ToString);
    End If;
End Sub userProc;

After executing the example the console window displays the squared Pearson correlation coefficient:
