Scala data access in Jupyter

There is a copy of the iris dataset on the University of California, Irvine website at https://archive.ics.uci.edu/ml/machine-learning-databases/iris/iris.data . We will access this data and perform some simpler statistics on the same.

The Scala code is as follows:

import scala.io.Source;
//copied file locally https://archive.ics.uci.edu/ml/
      machine-learning-databases/iris/iris.data
val filename = "iris.data"

//DEBUGGING Uncomment this line to display more information -
println("SepalLength, SepalWidth, PetalLength, PetalWidth, Class");
val array = scala.collection.mutable.ArrayBuffer.empty[Float]
for (line <- Source.fromFile(filename).getLines) {
    var cols = line.split(",").map(_.trim);
 //println(s"${cols(0)}|${cols(1)}|${cols(2)}| ...
