Description: Package contains functions for analyzing
        check-all-that-apply (CATA) data from consumer and sensory
        tests. Cochran's Q test, McNemar's test, and Penalty-Lift
        analysis are provided; for details, see Meyners, Castura & Carr
        (2013) <doi:10.1016/j.foodqual.2013.06.010>. Cluster analysis
        can be performed using b-cluster analysis, then evaluated using
        various measures; for details, see Castura, Meyners, Varela &
        Næs (2022) <doi:10.1016/j.foodqual.2022.104564>. Consumers can
        also be clustered on their product-related hedonic responses;
        see Castura, Meyners, Pohjanheimo, Varela & Næs (2023)
        <doi:10.1111/joss.12860>. Permutation tests based on the
        L1-norm methods are provided; for details, see Chaya, Castura &
        Greenacre (2025) <doi:10.1016/j.foodqual.2025.105639>.
