Show correlation coefficient between two variables
Hello,
I'd like to crease a measure which displays the correlation coefficient between two measures, the difficult part here is that I would like the two measures to be chosen dynamically (i.e. user chooses the first from the list of 20 variables, then chooses the second from the list of 20 variables, and the correlation coefficient is displayed). Is this possible to do in power BI itself or would I have to create a new table with the correlation coefficients already calculated?
Thanks, Greg

There is a quick measure for correlation coefficient. Please refer to:How To Get Correlation Coefficient In Power BI (c-sharpcorner.com)
