AnalysisLibErrType Correlate (double arrayX[], int sizeX, double arrayY[], int sizeY, double outputArray[]);
Finds the correlation of the input arrays. Correlate obtains the correlation using the following formula:
yi = 0 when j < 0 or j m
xi = 0 when j < 0 or j n

Note This function temporarily allocates memory for use as a work area. If Correlate cannot allocate memory, the function returns an error code. |
/* Generate two arrays with random numbers and find their correlation. */

| Input | ||
| Name | Type | Description |
| arrayX | double-precision array | First array to compare using the correlation operation. |
| sizeX | integer | Number of elements in arrayX. |
| arrayY | double-precision array | Second array to compare using the correlation operation. |
| sizeY | integer | Number of elements in arrayY. |
| Output | ||
| Name | Type | Description |
| outputArray | double-precision array | Correlation array. This array must be at least (n + m — 1) elements long, where n is sizeX and m is sizeY. |
