synthesize

Create <code>n</code> values or records based on the emperical (multivariate)
distribution of <code>y</code>.

Data is synthesized using a combination of inverse transform
sampling from the empirical quantile functions for each variable, and
then copying the rank order structure from the original dataset. The
package also includes a number of functions to measure the utility of
synthesized datasets.
