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 -- Richard B. Shepard, Ph.D. | Have knowledge, will travel.
