[R] Variance-covariance matrix

Hi,

Actually as variance-covariance matrix I mean:

	http://stattrek.com/matrix-algebra/covariance-matrix.aspx

that I compute by:

	data <- rnorm(10,2,1)
	n <- length(data)
	data.center <- scale(data, center=TRUE, scale=FALSE)
	var.cov.mat <- (1/(n-1)) * data.center %*% t(data.center)

If you mean the auto-correlation function, then the stats package (loaded by default at startup) has facilities:

?acf
# also same help page describes partial auto-correlation function
#Auto- and Cross- Covariance and -Correlation Function Estimation
