Description: 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.
