Examples

data(chocolates)
ktab.donnee <- ktab.data.frame(cbind.data.frame(chocolates[,1],
    chocolates[,4], chocolates[,-(1:4)]), blocks = c(2,14),
    tabnames = c("JP","Gr1"))
ktab.interesting.desc <- search.desc.ktab(ktab.donnee)
axe <- construct.axes(ktab.interesting.desc, scale.unit = TRUE)
simul <- simulation(axe, nbbloc = length(ktab.interesting.desc$blo)-1)
