coinertia: Coinertia Analysis

Description

The coinertia analysis performs a double inertia analysis of two tables.

Usage

coinertia(dudiX, dudiY, scannf = TRUE, nf = 2)
## S3 method for class 'coinertia':
plot(x, xax = 1, yax = 2, \dots) 
## S3 method for class 'coinertia':
print(x, \dots) 
## S3 method for class 'coinertia':
summary(object, \dots)

Arguments

dudiX

a duality diagram providing from one of the functions dudi.coa, dudi.pca, ...

dudiY

a duality diagram providing from one of the functions dudi.coa, dudi.pca, ...

scannf

a logical value indicating whether the eigenvalues bar plot should be displayed

nf

if scannf FALSE, an integer indicating the number of kept axes

x, object

an object of class 'coinertia'

xax, yax

the numbers of the x-axis and the y-axis

...

further arguments passed to or from other methods
