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,
