RSQ(known_y's, known_x's)

 
 Returns the square of the Pearson product moment correlation coefficient through data points in known_y's and known_x's.

 known_y'sThe array of data points.
 known_x'sThe array of data points.

 REMARKS
 
  • The arguments must be either numbers or names, arrays, or references that contain numbers.
     
  • If an array or reference argument contains text, logical values, or empty cells, those values are ignored; however, cells with the value zero are included.
     
  • If "known_y's" and "known_x's" are empty or have a different number of data points, then #N/A is returned.
     
  • For more information, see the PEARSON() worksheet function. The r-squared value can be interpreted as the proportion of the variance in y attributable to the variance in x.

     EXAMPLES
     
     A
    1=RSQ({2,3,9,1,8,7,5},{6,5,11,7,5,4,4}) = 0.058
    2=RSQ({1,2,3},{1,2}) = #N/A
