The first column of the data frame contains the response variable
(diabetes$y) which is a quantitative measure of disease progression
one year after baseline. The rest of the columns contain the measurements of
the ten explanatory variables (age, sex, body mass index, average blood
pressure and six blood serum registers) obtained from each of the 442
diabetes patients.
