Description: The Bayesian Adjustment for Confounding (BAC) algorithm
        (Wang et al., 2012) can be used to estimate the causal effect
        of a continuous exposure on a continuous outcome. This package
        provides an approximate sensitivity analysis of BAC with
        regards to the hyperparameter omega. BACprior also provides
        functions to guide the user in their choice of an appropriate
        omega value. The method is based on Lefebvre, Atherton and
        Talbot (2014).
