addGhostVars

specify variables that are <code>linked</code> to a key variable. This results in all
suppressions of the key-variable being also applied on the corresponding 'ghost'-variables.

Data from statistical agencies and other institutions are mostly
confidential. This package (see also Templ, Kowarik and Meindl (2017) <doi:10.18637/jss.v067.i04>) can be used for the generation of anonymized
(micro)data, i.e. for the creation of public- and scientific-use files.
The theoretical basis for the methods implemented can be found in Templ (2017) <doi:10.1007/978-3-319-50272-4>.
Various risk estimation and anonymisation methods are included. Note that the package
includes a graphical user interface (Meindl and Templ, 2019 <doi:10.3390/a12090191>) that allows to use various methods of this
package.
