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.
