/**
 * This operator constructs a bootstrapped sample from the given example set. That means
 * that a sampling with replacement will be performed. The usual sample size is the number 
 * of original examples. This operator also offers the possibility to create the inverse
 * example set, i.e. an example set containing all examples which are not part of the 
 * bootstrapped example set. This inverse example set might be used for a bootstrapped
 * validation (together with an {@link IteratingPerformanceAverage} operator.
