d.attrnames Optional list of mnemonic names for corresponding attrs.
d.target The attribute that a learning algorithm will try to predict.
By default the final attribute.
d.inputs The list of attrs without the target.
d.values A list of lists: each sublist is the set of possible

it is computed from the known examples by self.setproblem.
If not None, an erroneous value raises ValueError.
d.distance A function from a pair of examples to a nonnegative number.
Should be symmetric, etc. Defaults to mean_boolean_error
since that can handle any field types.
d.name Name of the data set (for output display only).
d.source URL or other source where the data came from.
d.exclude A list of attribute indexes to exclude from d.inputs. Elements
of this list can either be integers (attrs) or attrnames.
