      \brief A class to represent a DataSet that contains observations. 
 
      This class implements a view on a data set. It encapsulates a DataSet as a
      ObservationDataSet. An observation data set is composed of a finite number 
      of homogeneous observations, that is, 
      every observation has the same number and type of observed values.
