One benefit of Rattle is that it allows you to easily experiment with whatever it helps you create with R. Here’s a little project for you to try. You’ll learn more about neural networks if you can see how the network error rate decreases with the number of iterations through the training set.So the objective is to plot the error rate for the banknote.

To introduce k-means clustering for R programming, you start by working with the iris data frame. This is the iris data frame that’s in the base R installation. Fifty flowers in each of three iris species (setosa, versicolor, and virginica) make up the data set. The data frame columns are Sepal.Length, Sepal.Width, Petal.
