I am new to statistics. I decided to use Kendall tau correlation.

I want to find correlations between every variable of the data set. (For example, if there are three variables in the data $$x, y$$ and $$z$$, then I need the correlations between $$x$$and $$y$$, $$y$$ and $$z$$, and $$x$$ and $$z$$.)

I am unable to find any example with the correlation between more than two variables.

Question 1 Is the method to find the correlation between more than two variables the same as that for two variables?

Question 2 Some of my variables can be qualitative. Does Kendall tau satisfy my requirement? Please suggest any better method to do it.

Question 1 Is the method to find the correlation between more thatthan two variables isthe same as that for two variables?

Question 2 Some of my variables can be qualitative also. Does Kendall tau satisfy my requirement? Please suggest any better method to do it.

# how How to compute kandallKendall tau for more thatthan two variables

I am new to statistics.

I am reading articles on kendalldecided to use Kendall tau correlation.

I want to find the correlationcorrelations between each and every variable of the data set.  (i.e.For example, if there are three variables in the data say x y$$x, y$$ and z $$z$$, then I need to find the correlation the correlations between xy $$x$$and $$y$$, yz$$y$$ and xz$$z$$ and $$x$$ and $$z$$.).

so I decided to use kendall tau correlationhave about 100 variables.

I am unable to find any example which computewith the correlation between more than two variables.

Question : 1 ) so, isQuestion 1 Is the method to find the correlation between more that two variables is same as that for two variables  ?

I have data set having about 100 variables and I have to find the correlation between each variable to the restQuestion 2 Some of the variables in data set.

further more , my variablevariables can be qualitative also.

Question : 2 ) Does kendall Does Kendall tau satisfy my requirement.? Please suggest any better method to do it (if any).
