#' @title A function to create Random Forests output in preparation for visualization with rf_viz
#'
#' @description A function using Random Forests which outputs a list of the Random Forests output, the predictor variables data, and response variable data.
#'
#' @param x A data frame or a matrix of predictors.
#' @param y A response vector. If a factor, classification is assume, otherwise regression is assumed. If omitted, randomForest will run in unsupervised mode.
#' @param ... Optional parameters to be passed down to the randomForest function. Use ?randomForest to see the optional parameters.
#' @return The parallel coordinate plots of the input data, the local importance scores, and the 3-D XYZ classic multidimensional scaling proximities from the output of the random forest algorithm.
#'
#' @note For instructions on how to use randomForests, use ?randomForest. For more information on loon, use ?loon.
