/** This library calculates the correlation between items in lists. */

identifies the periods at which sequences appear to repeat. The result
is a sorted list containing pairs of [offset, correlation] with the terms
of strongest correlation being first in the list.
If you just want a single most likely autcorrelation period, it is found at
result@0@0
see correlationTest.frink for an example of using it.

/** This is the partial autocorrelation of a series. The partial
autocorrelation is useful because it eliminates the effects of smaller
offsets. For example, the partial autocorrelation at offset k is the
autocorrelation not accounted for by offsets 1 through k-1. That means
that, for example, if a sequence has a perfect autocorrelation with a
offset of 5, this will *not* display any partial autocorrelation at
10, 15, etc.
