Hi,

I'm mighty new to R. I'm using it on Windows. I'm trying to cluster using a
distance matrix I created from the data on my own and called it D10.dist. I
loaded the cluster package. Then tried the following command...

> agnes("E:D10.dist", diss = TRUE, metric = "euclidean", stand = FALSE,
> method = "average", par.method, keep.diss = n < 1000, keep.data = !diss)

And it responded...

Error in agnes("E:D10.dist", diss = TRUE, metric = "euclidean", stand =
FALSE,  : 
  x is not and cannot be converted to class dissimilarity

D10.dist has the following data...

D1      0
D2      0.608392        0
D3      0.497451        0.537662        0
D4      0.634548        0.393343        0.537426        0
D5      0.558785        0.543399        0.632221        0.726633        0
D6      0.659483        0.701778        0.741425        0.668624        
0.655914        0
D7      0.603012        0.659173        0.571776        0.687599        
0.383712        0.683948        0
D8      0.611919        0.665357        0.526453        0.715093        
0.457496        0.698213        0.317039        0
D9      0.41501 0.652117        0.552011        0.68969 0.485988        
0.702738        0.42819 0.442598        0
D10     0.376512        0.600607        0.517857        0.673515        
0.530421        0.667736        0.537025        0.48062
0.240559        0

I would appreciate any suggestions. Please assume I know virtually nothing
about R.

Thanks,
Karen

PS I'll eventually be using ~10,000 "species" to cluster. I'll need to have
within and between cluster distance info and I'll want a plot colored by
cluster. I agnes the right R tool to use?
