#' Numeric
#'
#' An internal function that converts an R vector of numerics or integers into
#' an R list containing java.lang.Double objects. This method does not need to
#' be used directly by the user, as \code{\link{train}} will automatically
#' handle numeric responses if you're working in the regression settings.
#' @param y The R vector of numbers
#' @export
#' @return An R list containing rJava Doubles.
#' @keywords internal
#' @examples
#' x <- Numeric(1:5)
#' class(x[[1]])
