Create Blocks or Strata which are Similar Within
Implements a heuristic algorithm to build blocks of a given size
aiming to maximize similarity within strata across multiple covariates.
The blocking structure can be used for causal inference and for sensitivity
analysis to unmeasured confounding. A stratified structure gives more flexibility
for using multiple instrumental variables and direct treatment vs. control
analysis as evidence factors.

blockmatrix: Tools to solve algebraic systems with partitioned
matrices
Some elementary matrix algebra tools are implemented to manage
block matrices or partitioned matrix, i.e. "matrix of matrices"
(http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Block_matrix). The block matrix is here
defined as a new S3 object. In this package, some methods for "matrix"
object are rewritten for "blockmatrix" object. New methods are implemented.
This package was created to solve equation systems with block matrices for
the analysis of environmental vector time series .
Bugs/comments/questions/collaboration of any kind are warmly welcomed.
