#' The \code{breast_cancer} Wisconsin data has 569 rows and 31 columns. The 
#' first 30 variables report the features that are computed from a digitized 
#' image of a fine needle aspirate (FNA) of a breast mass. They describe   
#' characteristics of the cell nuclei present in the image. The last column 
#' indicates the class labels (Benign = 0 or Malignant = 1).
