factor_analyzer.factor_analyzer_utils.cov(x, ddof=0)

Calculate the covariance matrix.

Parameters

Name	Type	Description	Default
x	array - like	A 1-D or 2-D array containing multiple variables and observations. Each column of x represents a variable, and each row a single observation of all those variables.	required
ddof	int	Means Delta Degrees of Freedom. The divisor used in calculations is N - ddof, where N represents the number of elements. Defaults to 0.	0

Returns

Name	Type	Description
r	numpy.ndarray	The covariance matrix of the variables.
