Introduce cars data set
cars = read.csv("cars.txt", header=TRUE, sep = ',')
Convert time.to.60 seconds to time.to.60 minutes in new columns
cars$time.to.60.min <- cars$time.to.60/60
Delete columns hp, mpg, year, brand
cars$mpg <- NULL
cars$hp <- NULL
cars$year <- NULL
cars$brand <- NULL
Min-Max transformation for cars$weightlbs
cars$weightlbsminmax = (cars$weightlbs - min(cars$weightlbs))/(max(cars$weightlbs) - min(cars$weightlbs))
