#' Wine
#'
#' Wine recognition data. These data are the results of a chemical analysis of
#' wines grown in the same region in Italy but derived from three different
#' cultivars. The analysis determined the quantities of 13 constituents found
#' in each of the three types of wines.
#'
#' @format A data frame with 178 observations on the following 14 variables.
#' \enumerate{
#'   \item Type: The type of wine, into one of three classes, 1 (59 obs), 2(71 obs), and 3 (48 obs).
#'   \item Alcohol
#'   \item Malic acid
#'   \item Ash
#'   \item Alcalinity of ash
#'   \item Magnesium
#'   \item Total phenols
#'   \item Flavanoids
#'   \item Nonflavanoid phenols
#'   \item Proanthocyanins
#'   \item Color intensity
#'   \item Hue
#'   \item Dilution: D280/OD315 of diluted wines
#'   \item Proline
#' }

#' @details
#' In a classification context, this is a well posed problem with
#' "well behaved" class structures. A good data set for first testing of a new
#' classifier, but not very challenging.
#'
#' I think that the initial data set had around 30 variables, but for some
#' reason I only have the 13 dimensional version. I had a list of what the 30
#' or so variables were, but a.) I lost it, and b.), I would not know which 13
#' variables are included in the set.

#' The data was used with many others for comparing various
#' classifiers. The classes are separable, though only RDA
#' has achieved 100% correct classification.
