QCA: Qualitative Comparative Analysis

Performs the Quine-McCluskey algorithm for Qualitative Comparative Analysis, for both crisp versions: bvQCA (binary-value QCA) and for mvQCA (multi-value QCA). In the classical approach it currently handles about 15 conditions and one outcome for binary data only, but since version 0.4-5 the package has an enhanced, faster function that obtains the same exact solutions with a substantially lower memory consumption, it handles even more causal conditions; the enhanced function eqmcc() can also be used for mvQCA. The next versions of this algorithm will be oriented towards fuzzy-set functions. Also, in the near future the current functions will deal with missing values in the data
