This is an error in the listing. It has of course only 3 columns.

This is not in the PLS regression part of the document I think,
but in the part about instrumental variables (hence the "iv").

No, principal component analysis on intrumental variables and
PLS regression are two different things. PCAIV is a PCA after
projection on a subspace. This is the same family of methods
as CCA (canonical correspondence analysis). PLS regression is
rather like co-inertia analysis methods.
