Hi Dorthe:

what is the difference between the obsolete IDL procedure "kmeans" and the
new "cluster" ?... In theory, with this procedures we get the same results, but
I tested it with the same input parameters (same image, quantity of clusters,
etc, etc), and we got different results...

could you please send me the answers to my e-mail to, because I don't read
this newsgroup very often...

thanks in advance...

Gonzalo Rojas
