Description: Provides methods to simulate and analyse the size and length
    of branching processes with an arbitrary offspring distribution. These
    can be used, for example, to analyse the distribution of chain sizes
    or length of infectious disease outbreaks, as discussed in Farrington
    et al. (2003) <doi:10.1093/biostatistics/4.2.279>.
