It is an unsupervised clustering algorithm. My intuition says that the cluster composition itself might change if you add a new example and re-run K-means.
On the other hand if you don't want to change the cluster compositions and just want to find a cluster for a new example then it is not K-means. In that case it is Knearest classifier. -- Pankaj Jangid -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
