graph method and wrong number of clusters

Hi!

I'm applying the graph method to a complete graph, so there is just one single connected component, and set k = 2. However, cluto outputs 3 clusters?!

What could went wrong?

RE: The GrModel=SY-DIR, NNbrs=40

The GrModel=SY-DIR, NNbrs=40 options probably disconnect the graph into two components and this is why you have three partitions.
