Iterative Correlation Test
I was wondering if it is possible to run correlation test over ever possible combination of several variables (around 40) automatically? I so, could Excel find correlation between individual variables and ever other possible groupings of variables? Each variable has the sam number of rows. Any help is appreciated -- montreal177 ----------------------------------------------------------------------- montreal1775's Profile: http://www.excelforum.com/member.php...fo&userid=3699 View this thread: http://www.excelforum.com/showthread.php?threadid=56953 |

The Correlation tool of Excel's Analysis ToolPak provides all pairwise correlations. - Mike http://www.mikemiddleton.com "montreal1775" wrote in message news:montreal1775.2c8f04_1155058209.1099@excelforu m-nospam.com...

The code has already been written, and it's the Correlation tool, part of the Analysis ToolPak provided with Excel. You do not need "manual deployment" of the CORREL worksheet function. Choose Tools | Data Analysis | Correlation, identify your data range in the Correlation dialog box, specify a destination, and click OK. If you want to reinvent the Correlation tool, with 40 variables, since CORREL(X1,X2) = CORREL(X2,X1), the number of pairwise correlations is (40^2)/2. And, if you avoid calculating CORREL(Xi,Xi) = 1, the number of correlation computations is ((40^2)/2)-40. - Mike http://www.mikemiddleton.com "N10" wrote in message ... Hi Manual deployment of the "correl" function is fine if one only has a few data sets to compare . In this case I understand you have 40 variable sets which must as individual entities, have correlation tests run against every other set...that in something like 40^2 analysis by my reconing..is that correct ? If so thats a lot of typing lol.... If you want code to do this task I would be willing to write it for you :) I'll need the spread sheet Bests N10 "Mike Middleton" wrote in message ... montreal1775 - The Correlation tool of Excel's Analysis ToolPak provides all pairwise correlations. - Mike http://www.mikemiddleton.com "montreal1775" wrote in message news:montreal1775.2c8f04_1155058209.1099@excelforu m-nospam.com...

HI Mike
Thanks for the clarification on this Mike . Looks like motreal1775's problem is solved and I have increased understanding :) Best N10 "Mike Middleton" wrote in message ...
