Description: Attain excellent covariate balance by matching two treated
        units and one control unit or vice versa within strata. Using
        such triples, as opposed to also allowing pairs of treated and
        control units, allows easier interpretation of the two possible
        weights of observations and better insensitivity to unmeasured
        bias in the test statistic. Using triples instead of matching
        in a fixed 1:2 or 2:1 ratio allows for the match to be feasible
        in more situations. The 'rrelaxiv' package, which provides an
        alternative solver for the underlying network flow problems,
        carries an academic license and is not available on CRAN, but
        may be downloaded from 'GitHub' at
        <https://github.com/josherrickson/rrelaxiv/>. The 'Gurobi'
        commercial optimization software is required to use the two
        functions [infsentrip()] and [triplesIP()]. These functions are
        not essential to the main purpose of this package. A free
        academic license can be obtained at
        <https://www.gurobi.com/features/academic-named-user-license/>.
        The 'gurobi' R package can then be installed following the
