		Pivot-Style Statistical Tables for Large-Scale Assessment Data //
		Turns assessment and survey sample data (demographics, scores,
		sampling weights, ability estimates with individual item
		response theory standard errors, replicate weights and
		plausible values) into fully customizable pivot-style
		statistical tables in which every cell carries a design-
		appropriate standard error. Provides weighted means,
		proportions above cut scores, proficiency-level percentages and
		quantiles; sampling variance via linearization, Woodruff (1952)
		doi:10.1080/01621459.1952.10483443 intervals for quantiles, or
		balanced repeated replication and jackknife replicate weights
		including Fay's method; measurement variance via delta-method
		propagation of individual standard errors or Rubin (1987)
		doi:10.1002/9780470316696 combination across plausible values.
		Imports data from 'CSV', 'Excel', 'SPSS', 'SAS', 'Stata' and
		item response theory software person files ('Winsteps',
		'ConQuest'); a configuration-file interface serves non-
		programmers and automation; results export to formatted
		'Excel', 'JSON' and standalone 'HTML' reports with rule-based
		plain-language interpretation.
