\title{A subset of the Gene expression dataset from Golub et al. (1999)}

\usage{
data(golub)
}

\description{
Gene expression data (500 genes and 38 tumor mRNA samples) 
from the leukemia microarray study of Golub et al. 
(1999).
The original dataset contains 3051 genes}
\value{
\item{golub}{matrix of gene expression levels for the 
38 tumor mRNA samples. Rows correspond to genes 
and columns to mRNA samples.}
\item{golub.cl}{numeric vector encoding the tumor 
classes, 27 acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) cases 
(code 0) and 11 acute myeloid leukemia (AML) cases (code 1). }
\item{golub.gnames}{a matrix containing the names of 
the 500 genes for the expression matrix \code{golub}. 
The three columns correspond to the gene \code{index}, 
\code{ID}, and \code{Name}, respectively.}
