Description: Performs the Quine-McCluskey algorithm for Qualitative
        Comparative Analysis, as described in Ragin, Charles C. 1987
        "The Comparative Method. Moving beyond qualitative and
        quantitative strategies", Berkeley: University of California
        Press. It currently handles about 8 conditions and one outcome.
        While theoretically it could handle more conditions, it
        requires a lot of computer resources and is memory hungry;
        future versions will have more functions to address this
        problem, as well as functions for fuzzy-set QCA. The package
        doesn't currently handle missing values in the data, therefore
        it is not yet possible to perform simplifying assumptions
