\title{Function to form hierarchical cluster analysis of items }
\description{
  The guts of the  \code{\link{ICLUST}} algorithm.  Called by \code{\link{ICLUST}} See ICLUST for description.
}
\usage{
ICLUST.cluster(r.mat, ICLUST.options,smc.items)
}
%- maybe also 'usage' for other objects documented here.
\arguments{
  \item{r.mat}{ A correlation matrix}
  \item{ICLUST.options}{ A list of options (see \code{\link{ICLUST}}) }
  \item{smc.items}{passed from the main program to speed up processing}
}
\details{
  See \code{\link{ICLUST}}
}
\value{
  A list of cluster statistics, described more fully in \code{\link{ICLUST}}
