#' Within matrix decomposition for repeated measurements (cross-over design)
#' 
#' This function is internally called by \code{pca}, \code{pls}, \code{spls},
#' \code{plsda} and \code{splsda} functions for cross-over design data, but can
#' be called independently prior to any kind of multivariate analyses.
#' 
#' 
#' \code{withinVariation} function decomposes the Within variation in the
#' \eqn{X} data set. The resulting \eqn{Xw} matrix is then input in the
#' \code{multilevel} function.
#' 
#' One or two-factor analyses are available.
#' 
#' @param X numeric matrix of predictors. \code{NA}s are allowed.
#' @param design a numeric matrix or data frame. The first column indicates the
#' repeated measures on each individual, i.e. the individuals ID. The 2nd and
#' 3rd columns are to split the variation for a 2 level factor.
#' @return \code{withinVariation} simply returns the \eqn{Xw} within matrix,
#' which can be input in the other multivariate approaches already implemented
#' in mixOmics (i.e. spls or splsda, see \code{multilevel}, but also pca or
#' ipca).
