Statistics
Correlation Coefficient Calculator
Compute the Pearson correlation coefficient (r) between two variables from paired summary statistics — n, Σxy, Σx, Σy — to measure how strongly they move together linearly. The number ranges from −1 (perfect negative linear relationship) through 0 (no linear relationship) to +1 (perfect positive linear relationship).

Statistics
Linear Regression Calculator
Fit a least-squares regression line y = a + b·x to paired x and y values and read off the slope, intercept, or coefficient of determination (r²). Used in forecasting, trend analysis, and any setting where you want to quantify how much y changes with x.
