How it works...

Before conducting data analysis, it is important to collect your dataset. However, to collect an appropriate dataset for further exploration and analysis is not easy. We can, therefore, use the prepared dataset with the UCI repository as our data source. Here, we first access the UCI dataset repository and then use the iris dataset as an example. We can find the iris dataset by using the browser's find function (Ctrl + F), and then enter the file directory. Last, we can download the dataset and use the R I/O function, read.csv, to load the iris dataset into an R session.
