4. Relevant Information:
     This is one of three domains provided by the Oncology Institute
     that has repeatedly appeared in the machine learning literature.
     (See also lymphography and primary-tumor.)

     This data set includes 201 instances of one class and 85 instances of
     another class.  The instances are described by 9 attributes, some of
     which are linear and some are nominal.

6. Number of Attributes: 9 + the class attribute

7. Attribute Information:
