Thanks to Tom DeRosa for providing the tipping data.Details
The owner of a bistro called First Crush in Potsdam, NY was interested in
studying the tipping patterns of his customers. He collected restaurant
bills over a two week period that he believes provide a good sample of his
customers. The data recorded from 157 bills include the amount of the bill,
size of the tip, percentage tip, number of customers in the group, whether
or not a credit card was used, day of the week, and a coded identity of the
server.
