Question

What is the difference between correlation and causation? Explain. ((typing))

Answer 1

correlation tells about association between two variables. correlation is measure of strength and direction of association between two continuous variable. it can be reason only linear relationship. if two variable has positive correlation then if one variable increases then other variable will also increases.

but it doesn't means that second variable increases due to first variable. it is not cause effect relationship.

causation shows that due to one effect of variable other variable changes. but in case of correlation there is no causation between variables.
