Analyses districted electoral systems of any magnitude by computing district-party conversion ratios and seats-to-votes deviations, decomposing the sources of deviation. Traditional indexes are also computed. References: Kedar, O., Harsgor, L. and Sheinerman, R.A. (2016). . Penades, A and Pavia, J.M.
