This is because your 'pca' object in Python is not an R principal
components object. You need to mess with the conversion system:
>>> pca=r('princomp(USArrests)')
>>> pca
- a big hash/list object appears....
SO let's change the conversion mode:
>>> rpy.set_default_mode(rpy.NO_CONVERSION)
>>> pca=r('princomp(USArrests,cor=TRUE)')
>>> pca
<Robj object at 0xb7d493f0>
- now pca is a Robj this is basically the R object. So you can do:
>>> r.predict(pca)
but you get:
<Robj object at 0xb7d493e0>
which isn't very useful as is. You could reset the conversion mode, or
use r.print_(r.predict(pca)), which gives you the matrix.
