Description: zitools allows for zero inflated count data analysis by
        either using down-weighting of excess zeros or by replacing an
        appropriate proportion of excess zeros with NA. Through
        overloading frequently used statistical functions (such as
        mean, median, standard deviation), plotting functions (such as
        boxplots or heatmap) or differential abundance tests, it allows
        a wide range of downstream analyses for zero-inflated data in a
        less biased manner. This becomes applicable in the context of
        microbiome analyses, where the data is often overdispersed and
        zero-inflated, therefore making data analysis extremly
        challenging.
