\description{
Compute (versions of) the (multivariate) \dQuote{Comedian} covariance,
i.e., multivariate location and scatter estimator
}
\usage{
covComed(X, n.iter = 2, reweight = FALSE, tolSolve = control$tolSolve,
trace = control$trace, wgtFUN = control$wgtFUN,
control = rrcov.control())
% comedian(...)
% COM(...)
}
\arguments{
\item{X}{data matrix of dimension, say \eqn{n \times p}{n x p}.}
\item{n.iter}{number of comedian() iterations. Can be as low as zero.}
\item{reweight}{logical indicating if the final distances and weights
should be recomputed from the final \code{cov} and \code{center}.
The default is currently \code{FALSE} because that was implicit in
the first version of the \R code.}
\item{tolSolve}{a numerical tolerance passed to \code{\link{solve}}.}
\item{trace}{logical (or integer) indicating if intermediate results
should be printed; defaults to \code{FALSE}; values \eqn{\ge 2}{>= 2}
also produce print from the internal (Fortran) code.}
\item{wgtFUN}{a character string or \code{\link{function}}, specifying
how the weights for the reweighting step should be computed. The default,
\code{wgtFUN = "01.original"} corresponds to 0-1 weights as proposed
originally. Other predefined string options are available, though
experimental, see the experimental \code{.wgtFUN.covComed} object.}
\item{control}{a list with estimation options - this includes those
above provided in the function specification, see
\code{\link{rrcov.control}} for the defaults. If \code{control} is
supplied, the parameters from it will be used. If parameters are
passed also in the invocation statement, they will override the
corresponding elements of the control object.}
