optimal number of groups

Calculate the optimal number of groups for a future Kmeans with classical intergoup / intragroup variance simulation. If the maximum number of groups declared <= 2, first calculate the maximum reasonable number of groups (can be very long) using a confirmatory logistic regression or dicriminant analysis for each kmeans simulation and retaining the number of groups generating the maximum leap in accuracy. In that last case the number of groups to span is firstly delimited from 2 to sqrt(nbrows)*3.

Options

Maximum number of groups: Maximum number of groups (effective only for varinter/vartot method)
check option: used if ngroup <= 2%%00010method to determine the maximum number of cluster (maximum reasonable fragmentation).%%00010
