It measures the strength and direction of the linear relationship, where +1 means very strong, positive linear relationship, -1 very strong, negative linear relationship, and 0 no linear relationship.
statistics.correlation(x, y, /)>>> x = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9]
>>> y = [9, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1]
>>> correlation(x, x)
1.0
>>> correlation(x, y)
-1.0
