//! Titanic survival dataset.
//!
//! The dataset holds passenger records from the Kaggle `Titanic: Machine
//! Learning from Disaster` competition. The task is to predict survival on
//! the RMS Titanic.
//!
//! **Features (11, mixed):**
//! - String features: `Name`, `Sex`, `Ticket`, `Cabin`, `Embarked`
//! - Numeric features: `PassengerId`, `Pclass`, `Age`, `SibSp`, `Parch`, `Fare`
//!
//! **Target:** `Survived` - binary label (`0` = died, `1` = survived)
//!
//! **Samples:** 891
//! **Application:** Binary classification / survival prediction
//!
//! **Source:** Kaggle competition

/// # About Dataset
///
/// On April 15, 1912, during her maiden voyage, the widely considered
/// "unsinkable" RMS Titanic sank after it collided with an iceberg. The ship
/// did not have enough lifeboats for everyone on board. As a result, 1502 of
/// the 2224 passengers and crew died. Luck played some role in survival, but
/// some groups of people were more likely to survive than others.
///
/// # Feature columns
///
/// Features are split across two matrices: a `(891, 5)` string matrix and a
/// `(891, 6)` numeric `f64` matrix (numeric entries are `NaN` when missing in
/// the source).
///
/// String features (`Array2<String>`), by 0-based column:
///
/// | Columns | Attributes | Unit |
/// |---------|------------|------|
/// | `0`     | `Name`     |      |
/// | `1`     | `Sex`      |      |
/// | `2`     | `Ticket`   |      |
/// | `3`     | `Cabin`    |      |
/// | `4`     | `Embarked` |      |
///
/// Numeric features (`Array2<f64>`), by 0-based column:
///
/// | Columns | Attributes    | Unit  |
/// |---------|---------------|-------|
/// | `0`     | `PassengerId` |       |
/// | `1`     | `Pclass`      |       |
/// | `2`     | `Age`         | years |
/// | `3`     | `SibSp`       |       |
/// | `4`     | `Parch`       |       |
/// | `5`     | `Fare`        |       |
///
/// # Labels
///
/// - `Survived` (shape `(891,)`): `0.0` (died), `1.0` (survived), or `NaN` if
///   missing in the source
///
/// Missing values:
/// - The loader parses missing numeric fields as `NaN`.
/// - The loader parses missing string fields as empty strings.
///

/// # Thread Safety
///
/// Every field implements `Send` and `Sync`, so this struct implements them too. It is safe
/// to share across threads.
/// The internal [`Dataset`] makes initialization thread-safe and lazy.
///
/// # Example
/// ```no_run
/// use dataset_ml::titanic::Titanic;
///
/// let download_dir = "./titanic"; // creates the directory if it is missing
///
/// let mut dataset = Titanic::new(download_dir);
/// let (string_features, numeric_features) = dataset.features().unwrap();
/// let labels = dataset.labels().unwrap();
///
/// let (string_features, numeric_features, labels) = dataset.data().unwrap(); // also gets all data
/// assert_eq!(string_features.shape(), &[891, 5]);
/// assert_eq!(numeric_features.shape(), &[891, 6]);
/// assert_eq!(labels.len(), 891);
///
/// // `get_data()` borrows the cached arrays without reloading. `get_data_mut()`
/// // edits them in place. It needs no clone and no reload, and the change
/// // stays cached. Prefer this method over cloning with `.to_owned()` when
/// // you only need to change values.
/// if let Some((_strings, numerics, labels)) = dataset.get_data_mut() {
///     numerics[[0, 0]] = 1.0;
///     labels[0] = 1.0;
/// }
/// assert!(dataset.get_data().is_some());
///
/// // `take_data()` moves the owned arrays out (no `to_owned()` clone) and leaves
/// // the instance reusable. The next access reloads from the cached file.
/// let (owned_strings, owned_numerics, owned_labels) = dataset.take_data().unwrap();
/// assert_eq!(owned_strings.shape(), &[891, 5]);
/// assert_eq!(owned_numerics.shape(), &[891, 6]);
/// assert_eq!(owned_labels.len(), 891);
///
/// // `into_data()` also returns the owned arrays with no clone, but consumes the
/// // instance (use it when you are done with the dataset).
/// let (owned_strings, owned_numerics, owned_labels) = dataset.into_data().unwrap();
