Oefeninstructies

First, standardize all variables in the dataset and save the result again in newsData (it's ok to overwrite the existing newsData object, we won't need it anymore).
Compute a PCA and store the results in an object called pcaNews.
Examine the results by looking at the eigenvalues. Round them to two digits.
