#' @title Over- or undersample binary classification task to handle class imbalancy.
#'
#' @description
#'
#' Oversampling: For a given class (usually the smaller one) all existing observations are
#' taken and copied and extra observations are added by randomly sampling with replacement from this class.
#'
#' Undersampling: For a given class (usually the larger one) the number of observations is
#' reduced (downsampled) by randomly sampling without replacement from this class.
#'
#' @template arg_task
#' @param rate [\code{numeric(1)}]\cr
#'   Factor to upsample or downsample a class.
#'   For undersampling: Must be between 0 and 1,
#'   where 1 means no downsampling, 0.5 implies reduction to 50 percent
#'   and 0 would imply reduction to 0 observations.
#'   For oversampling: Must be between 1 and \code{Inf},
#'   where 1 means no oversampling and 2 would mean doubling the class size.
#' @param cl [\code{character(1)}]\cr
#'   Which class should be over- or undersampled. If \code{NULL}, \code{oversample}
#'   will select the smaller and \code{undersample} the larger class.
