Additional Variable Information

1. Class: DIE, LIVE 2. AGE: 10, 20, 30, 40, 50, 60, 70, 80 3. SEX: male, female 4. STEROID: no, yes 5. ANTIVIRALS: no, yes 6. FATIGUE: no, yes 7. MALAISE: no, yes 8. ANOREXIA: no, yes 9. LIVER BIG: no, yes 10. LIVER FIRM: no, yes 11. SPLEEN PALPABLE: no, yes 12. SPIDERS: no, yes 13. ASCITES: no, yes 14. VARICES: no, yes 15. BILIRUBIN: 0.39, 0.80, 1.20, 2.00, 3.00, 4.00 -- see the note below 16. ALK PHOSPHATE: 33, 80, 120, 160, 200, 250 17. SGOT: 13, 100, 200, 300, 400, 500, 18. ALBUMIN: 2.1, 3.0, 3.8, 4.5, 5.0, 6.0 19. PROTIME: 10, 20, 30, 40, 50, 60, 70, 80, 90 20. HISTOLOGY: no, yes The BILIRUBIN attribute appears to be continuously-valued. I checked this with the donater, Bojan Cestnik, who replied: About the hepatitis database and BILIRUBIN problem I would like to say the following: BILIRUBIN is continuous attribute (= the number of it's "values" in the ASDOHEPA.DAT file is negative!!!); "values" are quoted because when speaking about the continuous attribute there is no such thing as all possible values. However, they represent so called "boundary" values; according to these "boundary" values the attribute can be discretized. At the same time, because of the continious attribute, one can perform some other test since the continuous information is preserved. I hope that these lines have at least roughly answered your question.
