/// Rolling Pearson correlation between two synchronised series.
///
/// Each `update` receives one `(x, y)` pair (e.g. the latest close of the
/// asset and of the benchmark). Over the trailing window of `period`
/// pairs:
///
/// ```text
/// cov_xy   = (1/n) · Σ x·y − x̄·ȳ
/// var_x    = (1/n) · Σ x² − x̄²
/// var_y    = (1/n) · Σ y² − ȳ²
/// Pearson  = cov_xy / √(var_x · var_y)
/// ```
///
/// Output is in `[−1, +1]`. `+1` means a perfect positive linear
/// relationship; `−1` is a perfect inverse one; `0` means no linear
/// relationship. It is the same statistic `SciPy` / `NumPy` report as
/// `pearsonr` and the standardised relative of [`crate::Beta`] — Beta
/// scales Pearson by the ratio of standard deviations.
///
/// Each `update` is O(1): five running sums (`Σx`, `Σy`, `Σx²`, `Σy²`,
/// `Σxy`) are maintained as the window slides. A flat series in either
/// channel gives an undefined ratio; the indicator returns `0` in that
/// case rather than producing `NaN`. The output is clamped to `[−1, +1]`
/// to absorb tiny floating-point overshoots near the boundaries.
///
/// # Example
///
/// ```
/// use wickra_core::{Indicator, PearsonCorrelation};
///
/// let mut indicator = PearsonCorrelation::new(20).unwrap();
/// let mut last = None;
/// for i in 0..40 {
///     last = indicator.update((f64::from(i), 2.0 * f64::from(i) + 1.0));
/// }
/// // A perfectly linear pair → +1.
/// assert!((last.unwrap() - 1.0).abs() < 1e-9);
/// ```
