"""
this function takes a pre-made list of email texts (by default word_data.pkl)
and the corresponding authors (by default email_authors.pkl) and performs
a number of preprocessing steps:
-- splits into training/testing sets (10% testing)
-- vectorizes into tfidf matrix
-- selects/keeps most helpful features
after this, the feaures and labels are put into numpy arrays, which play nice with sklearn functions
4 objects are returned:
-- training/testing features
-- training/testing labels

### this preprocessing will be repeated in the text learning mini-project
