REGR_SLOPE()

Slope of the regression line

Result type

DOUBLE PRECISION

Syntax

REGR_SLOPE ( <y>, <x> )

Table 1. `REGR_SLOPE` Function Parameters
Parameter	Description
y	Dependent variable of the regression line.It may contain a table column, a constant, a variable, an expression, a non-aggregate function or a UDF.Aggregate functions are not allowed as expressions.
x	Independent variable of the regression line.It may contain a table column, a constant, a variable, an expression, a non-aggregate function or a UDF.Aggregate functions are not allowed as expressions.

The function REGR_SLOPE calculates the slope of the regression line.

The function REGR_SLOPE(<y>, <x>) is equivalent to

COVAR_POP(<y>, <x>) / VAR_POP(<exprX>)

<exprX> :==
  CASE WHEN <x> IS NOT NULL AND <y> IS NOT NULL THEN <x> END

Sum of squares of the independent variable

Result type

DOUBLE PRECISION

Syntax

REGR_SXX ( <y>, <x> )

Table 1. `REGR_SXX` Function Parameters
Parameter	Description
y	Dependent variable of the regression line.It may contain a table column, a constant, a variable, an expression, a non-aggregate function or a UDF.Aggregate functions are not allowed as expressions.
x	Independent variable of the regression line.It may contain a table column, a constant, a variable, an expression, a non-aggregate function or a UDF.Aggregate functions are not allowed as expressions.

The function REGR_SXX calculates the sum of squares of the independent expression variable (x).

The function REGR_SXX(<y>, <x>) is equivalent to

REGR_COUNT(<y>, <x>) * VAR_POP(<exprX>)

<exprX> :==
  CASE WHEN <x> IS NOT NULL AND <y> IS NOT NULL THEN <x> END
