# DABench Task 543 - Is there a correlation between the diameter and the number of rings of the abalone? If so, what is the correlation coefficient?

## Task Description

Is there a correlation between the diameter and the number of rings of the abalone? If so, what is the correlation coefficient?

## Concepts

Correlation Analysis

## Data Description

Dataset file: `abalone.csv`

The data is available in the `train.csv` file in the public directory.

## Constraints

Calculate the Pearson correlation coefficient (r) to assess the strength of the linear relationship between diameter and rings.
Consider the relationship to correlate if the absolute value of r is greater than or equal to 0.1.
If the absolute value of r is less than 0.1, report that there is no significant correlation.

## Files

- `train.csv` - The training data
- `sample_submission.csv` - A sample submission file in the correct format

## Submission Format

Submit a single-row CSV with columns `id,answer`.

- `id`: always `543`
- `answer`: two key-value pairs separated by a space: `@correlation_coefficient[<r_value>] @relationship_status[<relation_status>]`

`<r_value>` is a number between -1 and 1 (two decimals). `<relation_status>` is `correlate` or `none`.

## Evaluation

Submissions are evaluated on **exact match** with the ground truth answer (with tolerance of 0.01 for floating-point values).

## Goal

Provide the correct answer in the specified format.

## Difficulty Level

Medium
