I wish I could do that, but the documentation seems to lack this level of
detail:
>?prcomp
[...]
‘prcomp’ returns a list with class ‘"prcomp"’ containing the
following components:
[...]
x: if ‘retx’ is true the value of the rotated data (the centred
(and scaled if requested) data multiplied by the ‘rotation’
matrix) is returned. Hence, ‘cov(x)’ is the diagonal matrix
‘diag(sdev^2)’. For the formula method, ‘napredict()’ is
applied to handle the treatment of values omitted by the
‘na.action’.
[...]
Here it seems to describe the x scores but not their dimnames. ..?
Cheers,
Piero
