/**
 * Implementation for Excel CORREL() function.
 * 
 *   Syntax:
 CORREL (array1, array2)

 * 
 * 
 *   The CORREL function returns the correlation coefficient of two cell ranges.
 *   Use the correlation coefficient to determine the relationship between two properties.
 *   For example, you can examine the relationship between a location's average temperature and the use of air conditioners.
 *
