_DESCRIPTION = """
Pearson correlation coefficient and p-value for testing non-correlation.
The Pearson correlation coefficient measures the linear relationship between two datasets. The calculation of the p-value relies on the assumption that each dataset is normally distributed. Like other correlation coefficients, this one varies between -1 and +1 with 0 implying no correlation. Correlations of -1 or +1 imply an exact linear relationship. Positive correlations imply that as x increases, so does y. Negative correlations imply that as x increases, y decreases.
The p-value roughly indicates the probability of an uncorrelated system producing datasets that have a Pearson correlation at least as extreme as the one computed from these datasets.

_KWARGS_DESCRIPTION = """
Args:
    predictions (`list` of `int`): Predicted class labels, as returned by a model.
    references (`list` of `int`): Ground truth labels.
    return_pvalue (`boolean`): If `True`, returns the p-value, along with the correlation coefficient. If `False`, returns only the correlation coefficient. Defaults to `False`.

Returns:
    pearsonr (`float`): Pearson correlation coefficient. Minimum possible value is -1. Maximum possible value is 1. Values of 1 and -1 indicate exact linear positive and negative relationships, respectively. A value of 0 implies no correlation.
    p-value (`float`): P-value, which roughly indicates the probability of an The p-value roughly indicates the probability of an uncorrelated system producing datasets that have a Pearson correlation at least as extreme as the one computed from these datasets. Minimum possible value is 0. Maximum possible value is 1. Higher values indicate higher probabilities.

Examples:

    Example 1-A simple example using only predictions and references.
        >>> pearsonr_metric = evaluate.load("pearsonr")
        >>> results = pearsonr_metric.compute(predictions=[10, 9, 2.5, 6, 4], references=[1, 2, 3, 4, 5])
        >>> print(round(results['pearsonr'], 2))
        -0.74

    Example 2-The same as Example 1, but that also returns the `p-value`.
        >>> pearsonr_metric = evaluate.load("pearsonr")
        >>> results = pearsonr_metric.compute(predictions=[10, 9, 2.5, 6, 4], references=[1, 2, 3, 4, 5], return_pvalue=True)
        >>> print(sorted(list(results.keys())))
        ['p-value', 'pearsonr']
        >>> print(round(results['pearsonr'], 2))
        -0.74
        >>> print(round(results['p-value'], 2))
        0.15
