		Missing Data Imputation via Language Models and Statistics //
		Provides missing data imputation through two complementary
		engines: a large language model engine that communicates with
		the 'Anthropic' 'Claude' application programming interface for
		context-aware semantic imputation, and a fully self-contained
		offline engine implementing nineteen statistical and machine
		learning algorithms entirely in base R with no additional
		package dependencies. Offline methods include mean, median,
		mode, last observation carried forward, next observation
		carried backward, hot-deck, predictive mean matching, k-nearest
		neighbours, ordinary least-squares regression, Lasso with
		coordinate descent, Ridge with closed-form solution, Bayesian
		Ridge regression with evidence approximation following MacKay
		(1992), support vector regression with a radial basis function
		kernel, classification and regression trees, random forests,
		gradient boosting, iterative random forest imputation,
		principal component analysis imputation via iterative singular
		value decomposition, and nuclear-norm minimisation via singular
		value thresholding. When no API key is available the package
		automatically falls back to the offline engine, ensuring full
		operation in environments without internet access. Every
		imputed value is accompanied by a confidence score and a plain-
		language reasoning string, producing reproducible audit trails.
		The automatic method selector chooses the best algorithm per
		column based on data type, skewness, missingness rate, and
		inter-column correlations.
