Description: The gap statistic approach is extended to estimate the
        number of clusters for categorical response format data. This
        approach and accompanying software is designed to be used with
        the output of any clustering algorithm and with distances
        specifically designed for categorical (i.e. multiple choice) or
        ordinal survey response data.
