#' @author Steven P. Sanderson II, MPH
#'
#' @details This function will automatically prep your data.frame/tibble for
#' use in the C5.0 algorithm. The C5.0 algorithm is a lazy learning classification
#' algorithm. It expects data to be presented in a certain fashion.
#'
#' This function will output a recipe specification.

#' @description Automatically prep a data.frame/tibble for use in the C5.0 algorithm.

#'
#' @param .data The data that you are passing to the function. Can be any type
#' of data that is accepted by the `data` parameter of the `recipes::recipe()`
#' function.
#' @param .recipe_formula The formula that is going to be passed. For example
#' if you are using the `iris` data then the formula would most likely be something
#' like `Species ~ .`
