Dimensionality and feature information
Imagine you work for a bank and have collected information about different loans made to different people. Your boss wants you to begin exploring the possibility of using this data to classify customers into different credit score categories. A sample of the available data is loaded into credit_df. You are curious about how many features the data has. You also want to identify features that will not be useful for classifying customers into different credit categories.
The tidyverse package has been loaded for you.
