plotuScree: Plot of the Usual Cattell's Scree Test

Description

uScree plot a usual scree test of the eigenvalues of a correlation matrix.

Usage

plotuScree(Eigenvalue,
            x      = Eigenvalue,
            model  = "components",
            ylab   = "Eigenvalues",
            xlab   = "Components",
            main   = "Scree Plot",
            ...
            )

Arguments

Eigenvalue

depreciated parameter: eigenvalues to analyse (not used if x is used, recommended)

x

numeric: a vector of eigenvalues, a matrix of correlations or of covariances or a data.frame of data

model

character: "components" or "factors"

main

character: title of the plot (default is Scree Plot)

xlab

character: label of the x axis (default is Component)

ylab

character: label of the y axis (default is Eigenvalue)

...

variable: additionnal parameters to give to the eigenComputes function

Value

Nothing returned with this function.
