_D_e_s_c_r_i_p_t_i_o_n:

     Gene expression data (3051 genes and 38 tumor mRNA samples) from
     the leukemia microarray study of Golub et al. (1999).
     Pre-processing was done as described in Dudoit et al. (2002). The
     R code for pre-processing is available in the file <URL:
     ../doc/golub.R>.

_U_s_a_g_e:

     data(golub)

_V_a_l_u_e:

   golub: matrix of gene expression levels for the 38 tumor mRNA
          samples, rows correspond to genes (3051 genes) and columns to
          mRNA samples.

golub.cl: numeric vector indicating the tumor class, 27 acute
          lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) cases (code 0) and 11 acute
          myeloid leukemia (AML) cases (code 1). 

golub.gnames: a matrix containing the names of the 3051 genes for the
          expression matrix 'golub'. The three columns correspond to
          the gene 'index', 'ID', and 'Name', respectively.
