Hello,
 
I'd like to cluster categorical data (3 categories) by means of a partitioning 
method; I'm quite a beginner in that field and I would need to be enlightened.
From a bibliographic review I carried out about that topic, it appeared to me 
that a method is often used :the k-modes method. From her/his experience, 
could anyone confirm or deny that it is the case ? If denied, which method 
could be more "powerful" ?

Thanks in advance.

Best Regards.
Arnaud.
