colToDummies

Changes a column containing multiple values
to a matrix of columns containing the dummies
corresponding to each value.

Provides user-friendly tools for calibration in survey sampling.
The package is production-oriented, and its interface is inspired by the famous
popular macro 'Calmar' for SAS, so that 'Calmar' users can quickly get used to
'icarus'. In addition to calibration (with linear, raking and logit methods),
'icarus' features functions for calibration on tight bounds and penalized
calibration.
