Can you make a correlation plot with field parameter in power bi natively?

I want to make a correlation plot with field parameter in power bi. 

 

Suppose my data looks like this:

 

IDHeightAgeWeightIQ
117218144100
...............

 

and perhaps another table

 

IDSalaryNumber of children
1100,0001
.........

 

I have created two parameter fields and placed them in the x and y axis of a scatter chart, that way I can see a scatter plot of any two variables, and how they are correlated with each other for example:

 

age vs salary, salary vs number of children, height vs weight, and so on.

 

This works fine but I want to be able to work out the R squared value between any two given parameters.

 

Basically I want the output to be a matrix that looks like this:

 

 heightageweightiqsalary#children
height10.8865............
age0.88651............
weight......1..........
iq.........1......
salary.............1...
#children...............1

 

Can anyone help me to do this please.

 

The first step I did was to put my parameter field in a matrix with the x axis and y axis having the parameter field, this should look like the above but without the values in the matrix but it doesn't display properly

Hi @tomi5 ,

How to get 0.8865 according your base two table? Not very clear.

 

 

Best Regards
