Overview

This is referred to as a "Toy Dataset" because of its small size and the fact that it uses made-up data. However, it is meant to show that the probability of someone having cancer increases if they smoke or have friends who smoke.

Target: cancer

The facts contain information on two labels: friends, smokes.
