Menu M: data analyses

Menu Md: principal components
Md.4 produces the same submenu as menu Mc.7, controlling options for modelling principal components analysis. The same general considerations apply with respect to running a number of models with data drawn from binomial distributions corresponding to the observed data.

Output is currently confined to including a standard deviation to each eigenvalue, obtained from the eigenvalues from modelling runs. As with zonation, modelling principal components analysis may be extremely expensive in computer time
