/**
* Stratified sampling operator. This operator performs a random sampling of a
* given fraction. In contrast to the simple sampling operator, this operator
* performs a stratified sampling for data sets with nominal label attributes,
* i.e. the class distributions remains (almost) the same after sampling. Hence,
* this operator cannot be applied on data sets without a label or with a
* numerical label. In these cases a simple sampling without stratification
* is performed.
