It is the discrete counterpart of 'HistDAWass' and provides exact Wasserstein distances (in C++), barycenters, Wasserstein variance, covariance and correlation, k-means and hierarchical clustering, quantile-based principal component and multiple factor analysis, two-component linear regression and reliability (Cronbach's alpha) indices.
