Regression with KNN

Now let's use KNN for a regression task. Let's use a person's height and sex to predict their weight. The following tables list our training and testing sets:

Height	Sex	Weight
`158` cm	`male`	`64` kg
`170` cm	`male`	`66` kg
`183` cm	`male`	`84` kg
`191` cm	`male`	`80` kg
`155` cm	`female`	`49` kg
`163` cm	`female`	`59` kg
`180` cm	`female`	`67` kg
`158` cm	`female`	`54` kg
`178` cm	`female`	`77` kg

Height	Sex	Weight
`168` cm	`male`	`65` kg
`170` cm	`male`	`61` kg
`160` cm	`female`	`52` kg
`169` cm	`female`	`67` kg

We will instantiate and fit KNeighborsRegressor, and use it to predict weights. In this dataset, sex has already been coded as a binary-valued feature. Notice that this feature ranges from 0 to 1, while the values of the feature representing the person's height range from 155 to...
