Description

This small package contains a fast implementation of hierarchical clustering. The package provides the function flashClust whose use is identical to the use of the standard R function hclust. In fact, most of the code is also identical. The difference is that flashClust uses an adapted version of the original Fortran code by Fionn Murtagh; this code is faster than the version used in the standard R function hclust.
