Type help ttest or help signrank and you get details how to use the
two. If I understand you correctly, you'd like to find out whether
there is any statistically significant correlation. If the numbers are
distributed normally you can use a ttest otherwise you should use a
non-parametric test such as the Wilcoxon signrank test.
A = [1 2 44 55 33 54];
B = [12 23 4 55 3 54];
[testresult_ttest,p_ttest]=ttest (A,B)
[p_signrank,testresult_signrank]=signrank (A,B)
