    Initially the array contains information like the year, the temperature, the percentage of voters, a note. All this information has different units and keeping them, as the year value will override the other columns and thus mask their importance. To overcome this problem you can made a centering each column: subtract the value of the average value for each column. The new average of the column will be 0. Then there is a reduction of the column: ie that you will divide each value by the standard deviation of its column.

    There are certain macros you can found from internet that can help you to perform various kinds of multivariate methods. The main output is a Biplot which is a plot of rows and columns of data obtained from a cross-tab. Biplot coordinates are calculated using singular value decomposition of the data matrix.
