Please consider the following PCA example; my.df <- data.frame(A=(x <- rnorm(100,mean=100, sd=10)), B=(y <- x + rnorm(100,mean=10, sd=10)))
plot(my.df) my.pc <- prcomp(my.df, center=TRUE, scale=TRUE) biplot(my.pc) my.x <- (my.pc$x)[,1] my.y <- (my.pc$x)[,2] plot(my.x, my.y, type="n") text(my.x, my.y, labels=1:100) Clearly the plots have the same relative values, but I can't work out how the second plot is relative to the first. I have been reading the manual, but I still can't work it out. Can anyone show me the code to generate the data that I see plotted using biplot? What am I missing? Dan.
