Correlation and dependence
In
statistics,
dependence is any statistical relationship between two
random variables or two sets of
data.
Correlation refers to any of a broad class of statistical relationships involving dependence, though it most in common usage often refers to the extent to which two variables have a linear relationship with each other. Familiar examples of dependent phenomena include the correlation between the physical
statures of parents and their offspring, and the correlation between the
demand for a product and its price.
