iris: Iris Data Set

Description

This is perhaps the best known database to be found in the pattern recognition literature. Fisher's paper is a classic in the field and is referenced frequently to this day. The data set contains 3 classes of 50 instances each, where each class refers to a type of iris plant. One class is linearly separable from the other 2; the latter are NOT linearly separable from each other.

Usage

data("iris")

Format

iris is a data frame with 150 cases (rows) and 5 variables (columns) named:

1. Sepal.Length continuous.

2. Sepal.Width continuous.

3. Petal.Length continuous.

4. Petal.Width continuous.

5. Class discrete iris-setosa, iris-versicolour or iris-virginica.
