Abstract
This chapter is a short introduction to the K-table family of methods. We first present some examples of ecological K-table, the structure of the ktab object used in the ade4 package to store a K-table, and the functions that allow to build and manage them. We briefly present three types of methods: STATIS, Multiple Factor Analysis and Multiple Coinertia Analysis. We explain the differences between these three groups of methods, with several examples of use.
