_D_e_s_c_r_i_p_t_i_o_n:

     Returns the minimum hypervolume. `pcvol' calculates this volume
     using principal components. `hypvol' takes the smaller of either
     this value, or a value calculated from the range of the data.

_U_s_a_g_e:

     hypvol(data, reciprocal=F)
     pcvol(data, reciprocal=F)

_A_r_g_u_m_e_n_t_s:

    data: Data matrix.

reciprocal: A logical indicating whether the reciprocal volume is to be
          returned.

     data(iris)
     hypvol(iris[,1:4])
     pcvol(iris[,1:4])
