Correlation analysis is a statistical technique used to measure and quantify the strength and direction of the relationship between two or more variables, typically expressed through a correlation coefficient like Pearson's r. Data analysts, researchers, and scientists use it to identify patterns, such as whether marketing spend correlates with sales, before drawing conclusions about potential (though not necessarily causal) relationships. It's a foundational tool in fields ranging from finance and economics to biology and social science research.
