Provides various styles of function chaining methods: Pipe
    operator, Pipe object, and pipeline function, each representing a distinct
    pipeline model yet sharing almost a common set of features: A value can be
    piped to the first unnamed argument of a function and to dot symbol in an
    enclosed expression. The syntax is designed to make the pipeline more
    readable and friendly to a wide range of operations.

Enable users to measure and record the execution time of pipe operations (using |>) with optional logging to dataframes and output to the console.

An interface to compute poverty and inequality 
    indicators for more than 160 countries and regions from the World
    Bank's database of household surveys, through the 
    Poverty and Inequality Portal (PIP).

An embedded proximal interior point quadratic programming solver, which can solve dense and sparse quadratic programs, described in Schwan, Jiang, Kuhn, and Jones (2023) <doi:10.48550/arXiv.2304.00290>. Combining an infeasible interior point method with the proximal method of multipliers, the algorithm can handle ill-conditioned convex quadratic programming problems without the need for linear independence of the constraints. The solver is written in header only 'C++ 14' leveraging the 'Eigen' library for vectorized linear algebra. For small dense problems, vectorized instructions and cache locality can be exploited more efficiently. Allocation free problem updates and re-solves are also provided.

Calculate and optimize dynamic performance ratings of association football 
  teams competing in matches, in accordance with the method used in 
  the research paper "Determining the level of ability of football teams by 
  dynamic ratings based on the relative discrepancies in scores between adversaries", 
  by Constantinou and Fenton (2013) 
  <doi:10.1515/jqas-2012-0036>    
  This dynamic rating system has proven to provide superior 
  results for predicting association football outcomes.
