Input Arguments:

• Data matrix X, which is n by p
• maxit specifies the maximum number of iterations.
• k is the number of dimensions 1 > k >= p
• type is an optional argument specifying the type of display. 'a' displays on Andrews' curves, and 'p' (default) produces parallel coordinate plots.

Output Arguments:

• None
