corr()

The correlation coefficient of the least squares fit line of the adjusted counter value and epoch value of the time column. Given that the slope of a line for any counter value must be non-negative, this must also always be non-negative and in the range from 0.0 to 1.0. It measures how well the least squares fit the available data, where a value of 1.0 represents the strongest correlation between time and the counter increasing.

corr(
    summary CounterSummary
) RETURNS DOUBLE PRECISION
