COVAR_POP

Calculates the value of Σ((x - x̅)(y - y̅)) / n .

Note: This function uses a numerically unstable algorithm. If you need numerical stability in calculations, use the covarPopStable function. It works slower but provides a lower computational error.

Syntax

covarPop(x, y)

Arguments

  • x – The set of number.
  • y - The set of number.

Returned value

  • The population covariance.

Type: Float64

Example

CREATE TABLE test.test_covarPop(days_employed Int32, salary Int32) ENGINE = CnchMergeTree ORDER BY days_employed; -- create sample table
INSERT INTO test.test_covarPop(days_employed,salary) VALUES(300,3000),(600,4000),(900,4500),(1200,4800),(1500,5000); -- insert data to table
SELECT covarPop(days_employed,salary) FROM test.test_covarPop; -- find out the population covariance for days employed and salary

Result:

┌─covarPop(days_employed, salary)─┐
│ 2.88e+05                        │
└─────────────────────────────────┘

COVAR_SAMP

Calculates the value of Σ((x - x̅)(y - y̅)) / (n - 1) .
