new_method

Creates a new <code>Method</code> object.

A framework for performing simulations such as those common in
methodological statistics papers. The design principles of this package
are described in greater depth in Bien, J. (2016) "The simulator: An Engine
to Streamline Simulations," which is available at <arXiv:1607.00021>.
