Coefficient of Determination (R²) Calculator

Calculate R-squared to measure how well a regression model fits the data

About R-Squared

The coefficient of determination (R²) measures the proportion of variance in the dependent variable that is predictable from the independent variable.

Formula: R² = 1 - (SS_residual / SS_total)

Interpretation:

  • R² = 1: Perfect fit (100% variance explained)
  • R² = 0: No linear relationship
  • Adjusted R² accounts for the number of predictors
