Datasets inside R

Welcome to the Clustering and classification chapter.

R has many (usually small) datasets already loaded in. There are also datasets included in the package installations. Some of the datasets are quite famous (like the Iris flower data) and they are frequently used for teaching purposes or to demonstrate statistical methods.

This week we will be using the Boston dataset from the MASS package. Let's see how it looks like!
