Correlation is simply the Pearson r.  It's a measure of covaration, which 
ranges from -1 to 1.  The absolute value of r indexes the degree to which 
you can predict the value of array 2 given knowledge of the value of array 
1.  If values of array 1 and array 2 tend to move in the same direction then 
r > 0.  If values of array 1 and array 2 tend to move in opposite directions 
then r < 0.  r = 0 means the arrays are independent so no prediction is 
possible.  r = 1 or r = -1 indicate perfect prediction.  Maybe this will 
help?
