I have dataset that contains the acceleration data of three axes (x, y, and z) , this an example of my data

I have calculated the Correlation coefficients of two axes (x and y) using the corrcoef function as illustrated bellow
R = corrcoef(X_Segments{1},Y_Segments{1})
X_Segments contains data of the first column (X Data) and Y_Segments contains data of the second column (Y Data). However, the output was strange
R =
1.0000 0.3424
0.3424 1.0000
I want to know which value represents the Correlation coefficients between X and Y and is there any solution to get the Correlation coefficients between two axes directly as one value (single output) not as a matrix ?

Hi guys, thanks for your answer howeover, the correct function is corr
CorrcoeffXY{nn,1} = corr(X_Segments{nn},Y_Segments{nn});
and the output will be the Correlation coefficients between X and Y
R = 0.3424

Oh, of course. I only tried
corr(rand(5,2))
(which returns a matrix)
and not
corr(rand(5,1),rand(5,1))
(which returns a scalar).
Glad you found something that worked for you.

The upper-right and lower-left elements are equal, and each one is the correlation you want. The diagonal elements are the trivial correlation of X with itself and Y with itself. Those will always be equal to 1, by construction.
I don't think there is a simple way to get just the single number without first getting the matrix.
