correlation
     n 1: a reciprocal relation between two or more things [syn: {correlativity}]
     2: a statistic representing how closely two variables co-vary;
        it can vary from -1 (perfect negative correlation) through
        0 (no correlation) to +1 (perfect positive correlation);
        "what is the correlation between those two variables?"
        [syn: {correlation coefficient}, {coefficient of
        correlation}]
     3: a statistical relation between two or more variables such
