_DESCRIPTION = """
The Spearman rank-order correlation coefficient is a measure of the
relationship between two datasets. Like other correlation coefficients,
this one varies between -1 and +1 with 0 implying no correlation.
Positive correlations imply that as data in dataset x increases, so
does data in dataset y. Negative correlations imply that as x increases,
y decreases. Correlations of -1 or +1 imply an exact monotonic relationship.

Unlike the Pearson correlation, the Spearman correlation does not
assume that both datasets are normally distributed.

The p-value roughly indicates the probability of an uncorrelated system
producing datasets that have a Spearman correlation at least as extreme
as the one computed from these datasets. The p-values are not entirely
reliable but are probably reasonable for datasets larger than 500 or so.

_KWARGS_DESCRIPTION = """
Args:
    predictions (`List[float]`): Predicted labels, as returned by a model.
    references (`List[float]`): Ground truth labels.
    return_pvalue (`bool`): If `True`, returns the p-value. If `False`, returns
            only the spearmanr score. Defaults to `False`.
Returns:
    spearmanr (`float`): Spearman correlation coefficient.
    p-value (`float`): p-value. **Note**: is only returned if `return_pvalue=True` is input.
Examples:
    Example 1:
        >>> spearmanr_metric = evaluate.load("spearmanr")
        >>> results = spearmanr_metric.compute(references=[1, 2, 3, 4, 5], predictions=[10, 9, 2.5, 6, 4])
        >>> print(results)
        {'spearmanr': -0.7}

    Example 2:
        >>> spearmanr_metric = evaluate.load("spearmanr")
        >>> results = spearmanr_metric.compute(references=[1, 2, 3, 4, 5],
        ...                                     predictions=[10, 9, 2.5, 6, 4],
        ...                                     return_pvalue=True)
        >>> print(results['spearmanr'])
        -0.7
        >>> print(round(results['spearmanr_pvalue'], 2))
