I would like to use "corrcoef" command. In matlab help it is written the input of "corrcoef" command is a matrix which its rows are observations and columns are variables. Please let me know what the observations are.
Thanks in advance.

"observations" here just means the values of the variables. Assume that you collect weight and height data on 5 people. Put the weight data in the first column and put the height data in the second column. You have a 5x2 matrix, each row is a pair of "observations" -- the (weight,height) pair for one person.
