20.68 The Original C5.0 Implementation
The (Kuhn and Quinlan 2025) package interfaces the original C code of the C5.0 implementation by Ross Quinlan, the developer of the decision tree induction algorithm.

% DONT EVAL YET - SEEMS TO BE TAKING LONG TIME
I am not aware of any converter from a C5.0 tree to an rpart tree and so fancyRpartPlot() will not be useful here.
