Each row represents a patient, while the columns encapsulate distinct clinical features. + +Here's a breakdown of some columns: + +Age and Sex: These denote the patient's age and gender, highlighting demographic factors. +Chest Pain Type (CP): Categorizes chest pain into distinct types, aiding in symptom classification. +Resting Blood Pressure (Trestbps) and Cholesterol (Chol): These numerical values reflect the patient's resting blood pressure and cholesterol levels, crucial indicators of cardiovascular health. +Fasting Blood Sugar (Fbs): Indicates the patient's fasting blood sugar level, potentially related to diabetes or insulin resistance. +Resting Electrocardiographic Results (Restecg): Provides insights into the resting electrocardiogram results, aiding in diagnosing heart conditions. +Maximum Heart Rate Achieved (Thalach) and Exercise-Induced Angina (Exang): Reflects the maximum heart rate attained during stress tests and the presence of exercise-induced angina, aiding in assessing heart function. +Oldpeak, Slope: Represents ST depression induced by exercise and the slope of the peak exercise ST segment, providing information about heart activity during exercise. +Target: A binary indicator (0 or 1) representing the presence (1) or absence (0) of heart failure. +This dataset amalgamates clinical, demographic, and diagnostic attributes, serving as a valuable resource for analyzing and predicting heart failure risks based on various patient parameters. Its multidimensional nature enables exploration of relationships between these attributes and the occurrence of heart failure, facilitating predictive modeling and healthcare decision-making. \ No newline at end of file
