Data Set

Specify a data set or a dissimilarity object. To use a subset of rows or columns, use standard S-PLUS subscripting of the data set.

Note that all columns of the data set must be numeric. If non-numeric columns (for example, factors) are present, use the Dissimilarities dialog to produce a dissimilarity object, and then use this object in clustering. The Dissimilarities dialog provides special options for handling factors.
