divisor_methods

divisor_round

divisor_floor

divisor_harmonic

divisor_geometric

divisor_ceiling

Functions to directly apply divisor apportionment methods instead
of calling <code>proporz()</code> with a method parameter. All divisor functions call
<code>highest_averages_method()</code> with a different sequence of divisors.

Calculate seat apportionment for legislative bodies with
various methods. The algorithms include divisor or highest averages methods
(e.g. Jefferson, Webster or Adams), largest remainder methods and
biproportional apportionment.
