Research direction

Open the shap_values_tutorial notebook and reproduce the X,y = shap.datasets.boston() cell with shap==0.50.0. The issue does not name a file or specify the intended replacement, so first determine the tutorial's expected dataset source; done means this step runs without the reported AttributeError.
