//! Palmer Penguins dataset.
//!
//! Size measurements for three penguin species observed on three islands in the
//! Palmer Archipelago, Antarctica. A modern, approachable alternative to Iris
//! for multi-class classification, with both numeric and categorical features
//! and some missing values.
//!
//! **Features (7, mixed):**
//! - String features: `island`, `sex`
//! - Numeric features: `bill_length_mm`, `bill_depth_mm`, `flipper_length_mm`,
//!   `body_mass_g`, `year`
//!
//! **Target:** `species` - one of `Adelie`, `Chinstrap`, or `Gentoo`
//!
//! **Samples:** 344 total (152 Adelie, 68 Chinstrap, 124 Gentoo)
//! **Application:** Multi-class classification / species recognition
//!
//! **Missing values:** the source encodes them as the literal string `NA`.
//! Numeric fields become `NaN`; string fields become empty strings. `species`
//! is never missing.
//!
//! **Source:** Horst AM, Hill AP, Gorman KB (2020). palmerpenguins R package.

///
/// String features (shape `(344, 2)`), in column order:
/// - `island` - Biscoe, Dream, or Torgersen (empty if missing in source)
/// - `sex` - male or female (empty if missing in source)
///
/// Numeric features (shape `(344, 5)`), in column order (may be `NaN` if missing
/// in the source):
/// - `bill_length_mm`
/// - `bill_depth_mm`
/// - `flipper_length_mm`
/// - `body_mass_g`
/// - `year` - the study year (2007, 2008, or 2009)
///
/// Labels (shape `(344,)`):
/// - `species` (in `&str`): `"Adelie"`, `"Chinstrap"`, `"Gentoo"`
