COVARIANCE.S Function

The COVARIANCE.S function is one of the statistical functions. It is used to return the sample covariance, the average of the products of deviations for each data point pair in two data sets.

The COVARIANCE.S function syntax is:

COVARIANCE.S(array-1, array-2)

where array-1(2) is the selected range of cells with the same number of elements.

Note: if array-1(2) contains text, logical values, or empty cells, the function will ignore those values, but treat the cells with the zero values.

To apply the COVARIANCE.S function,

1. select the cell where you wish to display the result,
2. click the Insert function
   icon situated at the top toolbar,
   or right-click within a selected cell and select the Insert Function option from the menu,

4. click the COVARIANCE.S function,
