One flower species is linearly separable from the other two, but in the other species case, which you can see in the dataset, two are not linearly separable from each other.

The attributes that exist in the dataset are as follows:

  • Id
  • SepalLengthCm
  • SepalWidthCm
  • PetalLengthCm
  • PetalWidthCm
  • Species

In this section, we will focus on creating the scattered plots for the given dataset. Creating scattered plots involves new feature analysis with the help of ggplot2. Let's ...
