Calculation of the correlation coefficient FFT

Question

I would like to calculate the correlation coefficient of two sound samples using AForge 2.2.5.

I read from here a formula for calculating cross-correlation.
And here I read about the formula for calculating the correlation coefficient.

I currently have:
Prior to calling CrossCorrelation (), FFT was performed.

static Complex[] CrossCorrelation(Complex[] ffta, Complex[] fftb)
{
    var conj = ffta.Select(i => new Complex(i.Re, -i.Im)).ToArray();

    for (int a = 0; a < conj.Length; a++)
        conj[a] = Complex.Multiply(conj[a], fftb[a]);

    FourierTransform.FFT(conj, FourierTransform.Direction.Backward);

    return conj;
}

static double CorrelationCoefficient(Complex[] ffta, Complex[] fftb)
{
    var correlation = CrossCorrelation(ffta, fftb);
    var a = CrossCorrelation(ffta, ffta);
    var b = CrossCorrelation(fftb, fftb);

    // Not sure if this part is correct..
    var numerator = correlation.Select(i => i.SquaredMagnitude).Max();
    var denominatora = a.Select(i => i.Magnitude).Max();
    var denominatorb = b.Select(i => i.Magnitude).Max();

    return numerator / (denominatora * denominatorb);
}

I'm not sure if this is the right way to implement a function (or data processing), as I am very new to DSP. I would really appreciate it if someone could point me in the right direction.

        double logLength = Math.Ceiling(Math.Log(sample.Count * padding, 2.0));
        int paddedLength = (int)Math.Pow(2.0, Math.Min(Math.Max(1.0, logLength), 14.0));
        Complex[] complex = new Complex[paddedLength];
        var samples = sample.ToArray();
        // copy all input samples
