PrincipalCoordinates(Proximities, w = NULL, dimension = 2, tolerance = 1e-04, 
Bootstrap = FALSE, BootstrapType = c("Distances", "Products"), nB = 200, 
ProcrustesRot = TRUE, BootstrapMethod = c("Sampling", "Permutation"))

`Proximities`	An object of class `proximities`.
`w`	An set of weights.
`dimension`	Dimension of the solution
`tolerance`	Tolerance for the eigenvalues
`Bootstrap`	Should Bootstrap be calculated?
`BootstrapType`	Bootstrap on the residuals of the "distance" or "scalar products" matrix.
`nB`	Number of Bootstrap replications
`ProcrustesRot`	Should each replication be rotated to match the initial solution?
`BootstrapMethod`	The replications are obtained "Sampling" or "Permutating" the residuals.

Principal Coordinates Analysis for a proximity matrix previously calculated from a matrix of raw data or directly obsrved proximities.

An object of class Principal.Coordinates. The function adds the information of the Principal Coordinates to the object of class proximities. Together with the information about the proximities the object has:

`Analysis`	The type of analysis performed, "Principal Coordinates" in this case
`Eigenvalues`	The eigenvalues of the PCoA
`Inertia`	The Inertia of the PCoA
`RowCoordinates`	Coordinates for the objects in the PCoA
`RowQualities`	Qualities of representation for the objects in the PCoA
`RawStress`	Raw Stress values
`stress1`	stress formula 1
`stress2`	stress formula 2
`sstress1`	sstress formula 1
`sstress2`	sstress formula 2
`rsq`	Squared correlation between disparities and distances
`Spearman`	Spearman correlation between disparities and distances
`Kendall`	Kendall correlation between disparities and distances
`BootstrapInfo`	The result of the bootstrap calculations
