Details

Sometimes, researcher want to override the outcome for theoretical reasons. This function provides a shortcut so the researchers do not have to mess with the internal structure of a truthTable. This is inspired by fsQCA (2.5) which require the researcher to decide the outcome manually or semi-automatically.

Should note that "freq1" and "freq0" are not affected, so QCA methods reliant on these two pieces of information might not suitable any more.
