How many components are relevant?
The results that you stored in pcaNews contain as many components as variables. But your goal is a dimension reduction. It's time to find out how many components you should extract. Use several approaches to make your decision.
The results of the pca pcaNews are still loaded in your workspace. All necessary packages are loaded.
