Concept Introduction:Correlation refers to the measurement that identifies the relationship between two variables indicating correlated or not and its value lies in between -1 and +1. Negative value signifies their correlation as antithetically correlated and positive value as both variables moving towards same direction and no correlation in between when value is zero.
