Chapter 11 issues

• The image on page 366 is supposed to be the pair-wise distance square matrix, but instead it is a repeat of the sample data image from page 365.

• Page 368, 1st paragraph, the text reads:

The first and second columns denote the most
dissimilar members in each cluster, and the third row reports the distance between
those members.

It should say "third column"

• Page 371, last paragraph, the text reads:

As we can see, in this pruned clustering hierarchy, label ID_3 was not assigned to the
same cluster as ID_0 and ID_4, as expected.

It should say "label ID_3 was assigned"

Sincerely,
Gary

Thanks for the feedback, and sorry about the trouble. You are correct on all three accounts, and I added these issues to the errata
