These datasets are useful to quickly illustrate the behavior of the

various algorithms implemented in the scikit. They are however often too
small to be representative of real world machine learning tasks.
In addition, scikit-learn includes various random samples generators that
can be used to build artifical datasets of controled size and complexity.
