I am a newcomer to R trying to convert a SAS program to R.
Does anyone know if there is a functional equivalent of the SAS
'Factor' procedure?
For example in SAS:
proc factor DATA=cor method=principal rotate=varimax proportion=0.9 scree
where 'cor' is a correlation matrix (as in the R 'cor' function)
This should get you a list of eigen values as well as a factor
pattern matrix.
Also why when I use the 'eigen' function in R does it seem to give
a subtly different answer to the eigen values generated by the above
program?
Many thanks for any help
