# Statistic Selected statistical methods. ## Correlation Correlation coefficients are used in statistics to measure how strong a relationship is between two variables. There are several types of correlation coefficient. ### Pearson correlation Pearson’s correlation or Pearson correlation is a correlation coefficient commonly used in linear regression. Example: ``` use Phpml\Math\Statistic\Correlation; $x = [43, 21, 25, 42, 57, 59]; $y = [99, 65, 79, 75, 87, 82]; Correlation::pearson($x, $y); // return 0.549 ``` ## Mean ### Arithmetic Example: ``` use Phpml\Math\Statistic\Mean; Mean::arithmetic([2, 5]; // return 3.5 Mean::arithmetic([0.5, 0.5, 1.5, 2.5, 3.5]; // return 1.7 ``` ## Median Example: ``` use Phpml\Math\Statistic\Mean; Mean::median([5, 2, 6, 1, 3, 4]); // return 3.5 Mean::median([5, 2, 6, 1, 3]); // return 3 ``` ## Mode Example: ``` use Phpml\Math\Statistic\Mean; Mean::mode([5, 2, 6, 1, 3, 4, 6, 6, 5]); // return 6 ``` ## Standard Deviation Example: ``` use Phpml\Math\Statistic\StandardDeviation; $population = [5, 6, 8, 9]; StandardDeviation::population($population) // return 1.825 $population = [7100, 15500, 4400, 4400, 5900, 4600, 8800, 2000, 2750, 2550, 960, 1025]; StandardDeviation::population($population) // return 4079 ```
