Description: Implementation of the exact, normal approximation, and
        simulation-based methods for computing the probability mass
        function (pmf) and cumulative distribution function (cdf) of
        the Poisson-Multinomial distribution, together with a random
        number generator for the distribution. The exact method is
        based on multi-dimensional fast Fourier transformation (FFT) of
        the characteristic function of the Poisson-Multinomial
        distribution. The normal approximation method uses a
        multivariate normal distribution to approximate the pmf of the
        distribution based on central limit theorem. The simulation
        method is based on the law of large numbers. Details about the
        methods are available in Lin, Wang, and Hong (2022)
