With 14 variables, scaled to sd == 1, and 1200 observations, you should get Xtotvar == 14*(1200-1) == 16786. (Maybe you have 1184 observations: 14*1183 == 16562.) -- Bjørn-Helge Mevik ______________________________________________ [email protected] mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help PLEASE do read the posting guide! http://www.R-project.org/posting-guide.html
