Can anyone please tell me how module two point correlation compute distance, I mean does it compute correlation at all scales because
I have gone through source code and it shows KTree and Btree. Can someone please explain me.

Hi Sandeep,
The distance is computed within the BallTree/KDTree data structure. By default it uses a Euclidean distance metric, but this can be changed by setting the ``metric`` parameter.

As far as your question about "correlation at all scales", I'm not entirely clear about what you're asking. But yes, the correlation function will be computed at every scale you input to the function.

Hope that helps,
   Jake
