Hi All,

Does anyone know what algorithm for clustering categorical variables? R
packages? Which is the best?

If a data has both numeric and categorical data, what is the best clustering algorithm
to use and R package?

I tried numeric transformation of all categorical fields  and doing clustering afterwards. But the transformed fields have values from 1...10, and my other fields is in a bigger scale: 10000-...This will make the categorical fields has less effect on the distance calculation...

Thank you!
Yan
