Description: Extensions to the synthetic controls analyses 
    performed by the package 'Synth' as detailed in Abadie, Diamond, and Hainmueller (2011) <doi: 10.18637/jss.v042.i13>. Includes generating 
    and plotting placebos, post/pre-MSPE (Mean Squared Prediction Error) significance tests and plots, 
    and calculating average treatment effects for multiple treated units. 
    This package represents an implementation of those methods 
    suggested in 
    Abadie, Diamond,and Hainmueller (2010) <doi:10.1198/jasa.2009.ap08746> for
    use in Synthetic Control Analysis.
