Split out the train and test sets

The first step of training a model is dividing the data into train and test sets. The tidymodels package makes this easy. Setting aside a test data set allows you to evaluate the trained model on a set of data the model has never seen.

You will use the employee healthcare attrition data which contains data about employees of a healthcare company and whether they left the company or not. It is available in attrition_df. The target variable is Attrition.

The tidyverse and tidymodels packages have been loaded for you.
