The Question
CodingMatrix-based Correlation Calculation
Implement a function in Python using NumPy to compute the Pearson correlation matrix for a given 2D array X. The function should optionally accept a second 2D array Y to compute the cross-correlation matrix between the features of X and Y. Ensure the implementation handles centering, normalization, and potential edge cases like zero variance features.
