pandas.Series.cov

Series.cov(other, min_periods=None, ddof=1)

Compute covariance with Series, excluding missing values.

Parameters

otherSeries

Series with which to compute the covariance.

min_periodsint, optional

Minimum number of observations needed to have a valid result.

ddofint, default 1

Delta degrees of freedom. The divisor used in calculations is N - ddof, where N represents the number of elements.

New in version 1.1.0.

Returns

float

Covariance between Series and other normalized by N-1 (unbiased estimator).

>>> s1.cov(s2)
