Description: The social network literature features numerous methods
        for assigning value to paths as a function of their ties.
        'gretel' systemizes these approaches, casting them as instances
        of a generalized path value function indexed by a penalty
        parameter. The package also calculates probabilistic path value
        and identifies optimal paths in either value framework.
        Finally, proximity matrices can be generated in these
        frameworks that capture high-order connections overlooked in
        primitive adjacency sociomatrices. Novel methods are described
        in Buch (2019)
        <https://davidbuch.github.io/analyzing-networks-with-gretel.html>.
        More traditional methods are also implemented, as described in
        Yang, Knoke (2001) <doi:10.1016/S0378-8733(01)00043-0>.
