I'm trying to create a correlation matrix for showing correlations among the average store sales for all product categories. The Product Categories are columns 10-18.

Here is my head(df2):

you can try with:

cor(df2[,10:18])

which will give you the following output :

Explanation:

You are using cor() function which calculate the correlation between the elements its receive as inputs. In this case, the input is df2[,10:18], which are the columns 10 to 18 of your df2 dataframe.
