Extracting Predictions from an SVM

Question:

What class does your SVM (0 or 1, corresponding to Sara and Chris respectively) predict for element 10 of the test set? The 26th? The 50th? (Use the RBF kernel, C=10000, and 1% of the training set. Normally you'd get the best results using the full training set, but we found that using 1% sped up the computation considerably and did not change our results--so feel free to use that shortcut here.)

And just to be clear, the data point numbers that we give here (10, 26, 50) assume a zero-indexed list. So the correct answer for element #100 would be found using something like answer=predictions[100]
