I'm trying to figure out how to calculate the correlation coefficient. I have two sets of data and I want to understand how they are related. Can someone explain the steps or provide a formula to calculate it?

Once the covariance is calculated, the next step is to find the standard deviations of both variables.

To obtain the correlation coefficient, the covariance is divided by the product of the two standard deviations.
