I just noticed the very nice radviz graphing feature added to pandas 0.8.1 (http://pandas.pydata.org/pandas-docs/dev/visualization.html#scatter-plot-matrix). Most of the graphs in the pandas documentation use randomly generated graphs, however the radviz examples uses the iris data set. The iris dataset, however, is not included as part of the pandas package to a new user cannot immediately reproduce, and play with, the example graph.

Would it be possible to include the iris dataset as part of the pandas package? alternatively, could the the example use a dataset that is hosted somewhere online?

best,
zach cp

It is included in the test suite. It's not accessible like data sets in statsmodels, though
