Hi R,
I have doubt. >x= c(4,5,6,3,2,4,5) >acf(x,plot=F,lag.max=1) Autocorrelations of series 'x', by lag 0 1 1.000 0.182 But if I actually calculate the autocorrelation at lag1 I get, >cor(x[-1],x[-length(x)]) [1] 0.1921538 Even in excel I get 0.1921538 value. So, I want to know what the 'acf' function is calculating here....
