abstract: Simulation and estimation of Exponential Random Graph Models (ERGMs) for
  small networks using exact statistics as shown in Vega Yon et al. (2020) <DOI:10.1016/j.socnet.2020.07.005>.
  As a difference from the 'ergm' package, 'ergmito' circumvents using Markov-Chain
  Maximum Likelihood Estimator (MC-MLE) and instead uses Maximum Likelihood Estimator
  (MLE) to fit ERGMs for small networks. As exhaustive enumeration is computationally
  feasible for small networks, this R package takes advantage of this and provides
  tools for calculating likelihood functions, and other relevant functions, directly,
  meaning that in many cases both estimation and simulation of ERGMs for small networks
  can be faster and more accurate than simulation-based algorithms.
