Implementation of the Random Recursive Partitionig algorithm

Description

This package implements the RRP algorithm introduced in Iacus-Porro (2006a) and different functions to for the applications described in Iacus-Porro (2006b). It also contains benchmark datasets in econometric average treatment effect estimation taken from the Lalonde (1986) paper.
