A correlation is a single numerical value that is used to describe the relationship between two variables. All correlations have strength and direction. When two variables have a positive correlation, that means the two variables move in the same direction. The closer a positive correlation is to 1, the stronger it is.
William Gilbert discovered electricity, not Nikola Tesla. Nikola Tesla invented things. not discovered electricity. Again, William Gilbert discovered it and named it. He did this in the 1600s. It wasn't Nikola Tesla.
But other than that, there was little real progress until the English scientist William Gilbert in 1600 described the electrification of many substances and coined the term electricity from the Greek word for amber. As a result, Gilbert is called the father of modern electric power. In 1660, Otto von Guericke invented a crude machine for producing static electricity. It was a ball of sulfur, rotated by a crank with one hand and rubbed with the other.
