\title{Project a distance matrix in a euclidean space (NMDS).}
\usage{
nmds(distances, maxit = 50, trace = TRUE, tol = 0.001, p = 2)
}
\description{
Project a set of points defined by a distance matrix in
an eucleadean space using the Kruskal's Non-metric
Multidimensional Scaling. This function is mainly a simplified
interface on the \code{\link[MASS]{isoMDS}} function using as
much as possible dimensionsto limit the stress. The aims of this
NDMS being only to project point in an orthogonal space therefore
without any correlation between axis. Because a non-metric method
is used no condition is required on the used distance.
