There are 20 patients with acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) and 32 patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML), both variants of a blood cancer. The makeup of the groups as follows:

Each individual has an expression value for each of 10000 different genes. The expression value for each gene is a continuous value between -1 and 1. With which type of plot can you encode the most amount of the data visually? You choose to perform agglomerative hierarchical clustering on the 10,000 features. How much RAM do you need to hold the distance Matrix, assuming each distance value is 64-bit double?
