Setting the parameter na.action=na.omit should remove
incomplete records in princomp. However this does not
seem to work as expected. See example below.
Sincerely,
Jerome Asselin
data(USArrests)
princomp(USArrests, cor = TRUE) #THIS WORKS
USArrests[1,3] <- NA
princomp(USArrests, cor = TRUE, na.action=na.omit) #THIS FAILS!
#Error in cov.wt(z) : x must contain finite values only
