Thanks to Prof. Ripley and Phil Spector for pointing out that the
autocorrelation functions must use a "nontraditional" definition of
the covariance, involving a denominator of n (instead of n-1) in order
to satisfy an assumption of second-order stationarity in the
(unbiased) covariance estimators

Hi.
It's my understanding that a cross-correlation function of vectors x
and y at lag zero is equivalent to their correlation (or covariance,
depending on how the ccf is defined).
If this is true, could somebody please explain why I get an
inconsistent result between cov() and ccf(type = "covarianc
