Variables

The data consists of the following ten variables and a class variable:

1. Id number: 1-214
2. Refractive index: numerical
3. Sodium(Na): numerical, weight percent in corresponding oxide
4. Magnesium(Mg): numerical, weight percent in corresponding oxide
5. Aluminum(Al): numerical, weight percent in corresponding oxide
6. Silicon(Si): numerical, weight percent in corresponding oxide
7. Potassium(K): numerical, weight percent in corresponding oxide
8. Calcium(Ca): numerical, weight percent in corresponding oxide
9. Barium(Ba): numerical, weight percent in corresponding oxide
10. Iron(Fe): numerical, weight percent in corresponding oxide
7. Class: 1 = building windows float processed, 2 = building windows not float processed, 3 = vehicle windows float processed, 4 = vehicle windows not float processed, 5 = containers, 6 = tableware, 7 = headlamps
