#' GGM Compare: Exploratory Hypothesis Testing
#'
#' @name ggm_compare_explore
#'
#' @description Compare Gaussian graphical models with exploratory hypothesis testing using the matrix-F prior
#' distribution \insertCite{Mulder2018}{BGGM}. A test for each partial correlation in the model for any number
#' of groups. This provides evidence for the null hypothesis of no difference and the alternative hypothesis
#' of difference. With more than two groups, the test is for \emph{all} groups simultaneously (i.e., the relation
#' is the same or different in all groups). This method was introduced in \insertCite{williams2020comparing;textual}{BGGM}.
#' For confirmatory hypothesis testing see \code{confirm_groups}.
#'
#' @param ... At least two matrices (or data frame) of dimensions \emph{n} (observations) by \emph{p} (variables).
#'
#' @param formula An object of class \code{\link[stats]{formula}}. This allows for including
#' control variables in the model (i.e., \code{~ gender}).
#'
#' @param prior_sd Numeric. The scale of the prior distribution (centered at zero), in reference to a beta distribtuion.
#' The `default` is sqrt(1/3) for a flat prior. See note for further details.
#'
#' @param type Character string. Which type of data for \code{Y} ? The options include \code{continuous},
#' \code{binary}, or \code{ordinal}. See the note for further details.
#'
#' @param mixed_type Numeric vector. An indicator of length p for which varibles should be treated as ranks.
#' (1 for rank and 0 to assume normality). The default is currently (dev version) to treat all integer variables
#' as ranks when \code{type = "mixed"} and \code{NULL} otherwise. See note for further details.
#'
#' @param analytic logical. Should the analytic solution be computed (default is \code{FALSE}) ? See note for details.
#'
#' @param iter number of iterations (posterior samples; defaults to 5000).
#'
#' @param progress Logical. Should a progress bar be included (defaults to \code{TRUE}) ?
#'
#' @param seed An integer for the random seed.

#' @return The returned object of class \code{ggm_compare_explore} contains a lot of information that
#' is used for printing and plotting the results. For users of \strong{BGGM}, the following
#' are the useful objects:
#'
#' \itemize{
#'
#' \item \code{BF_01} A \emph{p} by \emph{p} matrix including
#' the Bayes factor for the null hypothesis.
#'
#' \item \code{pcor_diff} A \emph{p} by \emph{p} matrix including
#' the difference in partial correlations (only for two groups).
#'
#' \item \code{samp} A list containing the fitted models (of class \code{explore}) for each group.
#'
#' }
#' @details
#'
#' \strong{Controlling for Variables}:
#'
#' When controlling for variables, it is assumed that \code{Y} includes \emph{only}
#' the nodes in the GGM and the control variables. Internally, \code{only} the predictors
#' that are included in \code{formula} are removed from \code{Y}. This is not behavior of, say,
#' \code{\link{lm}}, but was adopted to ensure users do not have to write out each variable that
#' should be included in the GGM. An example is provided below.
#'
#' \strong{Mixed Type}:
#'
#' The term "mixed" is somewhat of a misnomer, because the method can be used for data including \emph{only}
#' continuous or \emph{only} discrete variables. This is based on the ranked likelihood which requires sampling
#' the ranks for each variable (i.e., the data is not merely transformed to ranks). This is computationally
#' expensive when there are many levels. For example, with continuous data, there are as many ranks
#' as data points!
#'
#' The option \code{mixed_type} allows the user to determine which variable should be treated as ranks
#' and the "emprical" distribution is used otherwise. This is accomplished by specifying an indicator
#' vector of length \emph{p}. A one indicates to use the ranks, whereas a zero indicates to "ignore"
#' that variable. By default all integer variables are handled as ranks.
#'
#' \strong{Dealing with Errors}:
#'
#' An error is most likely to arise when \code{type = "ordinal"}. The are two common errors (although still rare):
#'
#' \itemize{
#'
#' \item The first is due to sampling the thresholds, especially when the data is heavily skewed.
#' This can result in an ill-defined matrix. If this occurs, we recommend to first try
#' decreasing \code{prior_sd} below sqrt(1/3) (i.e., a more informative prior). If that does not work, then
#' change the data type to \code{type = mixed} which then estimates a copula GGM
#' (this method can be used for data containing \strong{only} ordinal variable). This should
#' work without a problem.
#'
#' \item The second is due to how the ordinal data are categorized. For example, if the error states
#' that the index is out of bounds, this indicates that the first category is a zero. This is not allowed, as
#' the first category must be one. This is addressed by adding one (e.g., \code{Y + 1}) to the data matrix.
#'
#' }
#'
#' @note
#'
#' \strong{"Default" Prior}:
#'
#' In Bayesian statistics, a default Bayes factor needs to have several properties. I refer
#' interested users to \insertCite{@section 2.2 in @dablander2020default;textual}{BGGM}. In
#' \insertCite{Williams2019_bf;textual}{BGGM}, some of these propteries were investigated, such
#' model selection consistency. That said, we would not consider this a "default" Bayes factor and
#' thus we encourage users to perform sensitivity analyses by varying the scale of the prior
#' distribution.
#'
#' Furthermore, it is important to note there is no "correct" prior and, also, there is no need
#' to entertain the possibility of a "true" model. Rather, the Bayes factor can be interpreted as
#' which hypothesis best (relative to each other) predicts the observed data
#' \insertCite{@Section 3.2 in @Kass1995}{BGGM}.
#'
#' \strong{Interpretation of Conditional (In)dependence Models for Latent Data}:
#'
#' See \code{\link{BGGM-package}} for details about interpreting GGMs based on latent data
#' (i.e, all data types besides \code{"continuous"})
