Additional information
The database describes (using 11 attributes) certain types of solar flares occured in a 24 hour period. Each instance represents captured features for 1 active region on the sun.
Attributes description:
1. LargestSpotSize: Code for largest spot size (X,R,S,A,H,K)
2. SpotDistribution: Code for spot distribution (X,O,I,C)
3. Activity (1 = reduced, 2 = unchanged)
4. Evolution (1 = decay, 2 = no growth, 3 = growth)
5. Prev24Hour: Previous 24 hour flare activity code (1 = nothing as big as an M1, 2 = one M1, 3 = more activity than one M1)
6. HistComplex: Historically-complex (1 = Yes, 2 = No)
7. BecomeHist: Did region become historically complex on this pass across the sun's disk (1 = yes, 2 = no)
8. Area (1 = small, 2 = large)
9. C-class: flares production by this region in the following 24 hours (common flares).
10. M-class: flares production by this region in the following 24 hours (moderate flares).
11. X-class: flares production by this region in the following 24 hours (severe flares).
