How do I get Excel to calculate a single correlation coefficient?
If you want to calculate a single correlation in a cell of your Excel worksheet, you can use the CORREL function. Suppose your columns of data are in cells A1 thru A100 and B1 thru B100. Just type “=CORREL(A1:A100, B1:B100)” into a cell of your worksheet. Or, you can type in “=CORREL(” and then use your mouse to select the ranges of the worksheet that your data is in.
