Abstract
The division of pulsars into groups on the basis of cluster analysis a nd the main components method is studied. Pulsars with periods P > 1 s and P < 0.1 s form two separate classes; the short-period objects (P < 0.1 s), in turn, divide into two groups. One of these consists of yo ung pulsars that form in the Galactic plane or in globular clusters, w hile the other group consists of spun-up pulsars.
