In the example - what is the target variable?

In the following example : What is the target variable in df?

julia> obj = ModelSelection("forward", "r2", "aic");
julia> Random.seed!(123); df = hcat(rand(Float64, (50, 21))); # 50*21 Matrix
julia> fit!(obj, df)

Also - the package is not taking the advantage of multiple dispatch feature of Julia. The code can be optimised in many different ways. How can we catch up?

Sir,
Sorry for responding late, I was unwell lately.
The target variable is supposed to be last column of the data matrix. Here in the example, The target is a random 50*1 vector.
I have used dispatches over the type of the data(df)

function forward_stepwise(obj::ModelSelection, df::DataFrame)
function forward_stepwise(obj::ModelSelection, df::AbstractMatrix{<:Real})

But I do agree there is lot of scope of improvement to the code and documentation (It is my first package so my primary focus was to just get things work fine!). I would love to connect with you.
