#' Utility Functions for nFactors Class Objects
#'
#' Utility functions for \code{nFactors} class objects.
#'
#'
# #' @aliases is.nFactors print.nFactors summary.nFactors

#' @rdname nFactorsObjectMethods
#' 
#' @param x nFactors: an object of the class nFactors
#' @param ...  variable: additionnal parameters to give to the \code{print}
#' function with \code{print.nFactors} or to the \code{summary} function with
#' \code{summary.nFactors}
#' @return Generic functions for the nFactors class:
#'
#' \item{is.nFactors}{ logical: is the object of the class nFactors? }
#' \item{print.nFactors }{ numeric: vector of the number of components/factors
#' to retain: same as the \code{nFactors} vector from the \code{nFactors}
#' object} \item{summary.nFactors }{ data.frame: details of the results from a
#' nFactors object: same as the \code{details} data.frame from the
#' \code{nFactors} object, but with easier control of the number of decimals
#' with the \code{digits} parameter}

#' ## SIMPLE EXAMPLE
#'  data(dFactors)
#'  eig      <- dFactors$Raiche$eigenvalues
#'  N        <- dFactors$Raiche$nsubjects
#'
#'  res <- nBartlett(eig,N); res; is.nFactors(res); summary(res, digits=2)
#'  res <- nBentler(eig,N);  res; is.nFactors(res); summary(res, digits=2)
#'  res <- nCng(eig);        res; is.nFactors(res); summary(res, digits=2)
#'  res <- nMreg(eig);       res; is.nFactors(res); summary(res, digits=2)
#'  res <- nSeScree(eig);    res; is.nFactors(res); summary(res, digits=2)
#'
#' ## SIMILAR RESULTS, BUT NOT A nFactors OBJECT
#'  res <- nScree(eig);      res; is.nFactors(res); summary(res, digits=2)
