[ONKELINX, Thierry]

Both are functions (not packages) and available in the stats package.

To call in the statistician after the experiment is done may be no more than asking him to perform a post-mortem examination: he may be able to say what the experiment died of.

The combination of some data and an aching desire for an answer does not ensure that a reasonable answer can be extracted from a given body of data.

Onderwerp: [R] princomp/prcomp packages not available for 3.0.2

   Running 3.0.2 on Slackware here. Tried to install.packages() for both princomp and prcomp (Principal Components Analysis) but R responded by telling me neither is available for this version of R.

   Has anyone an idea when either (but especially prcomp) might be available?

TIA,

Rich
