Hi John,
It looks like you have been told to perform dichotomous clustering on 
the yeast data from Tavazoie et al. 1999. You should probably look more 
closely at the cutoff expression level you are to use and think about 
creating a new matrix of logical (0,1) values using a logical condition. 
This may be as much help as you will get on the list for this sort of 
request.

Jim
