Description: This package performs univariate stratification of survey
        populations. The main function implements a generalization of
        the Lavallee-Hidiroglou method of stratum construction. The
        generalized method takes into account a discrepancy between the
        stratification variable and the survey variable. The
        determination of the optimal boundaries also incorporate, if
        desired, an anticipated non-response, a take-all stratum for
        large units, and a take-none stratum for small units. The well
        known cumulative root frequency rule of Dalenius and Hodges and
        the geometric rule of Gunning and Horgan are also implemented.
