#' Outranking flows for the PROMETHEE methods
#'
#' This function computes the positive and negative outranking flows for the
#' PROMETHEE methods. It takes as input a performance table and converts the
#' evaluations to preference indices based on the given function types and
#' parameters for each criterion.
#'
#'
#' @param performanceTable Matrix containing the evaluation table. Each row
#' corresponds to an alternative, and each column to a criterion. Rows (resp.
#' columns) must be named according to the IDs of the alternatives (resp.
#' criteria).
#' @param preferenceFunction A vector with preference
#' functions.preferenceFunction should be equal to Usual,U-shape,V-shape,
#' Level,V-shape-Indiff or Gaussian. The elements are named according to the
#' IDs of the criteria.
#' @param preferenceThreshold A vector containing threshold of strict
#' preference. The elements are named according to the IDs of the criteria.
#' @param indifferenceThreshold A vector containing threshold of indifference.
#' The elements are named according to the IDs of the criteria.
#' @param gaussParameter A vector containing parameter of the Gaussian
#' preference function. The elements are named according to the IDs of the
#' criteria.
#' @param criteriaWeights Vector containing the weights of the criteria. The
#' elements are named according to the IDs of the criteria.
#' @param criteriaMinMax Vector containing the preference direction on each of
#' the criteria. "min" (resp. "max") indicates that the criterion has to be
#' minimized (maximized). The elements are named according to the IDs of the
#' criteria.
#' @return The function returns two vectors: The first one contains the
#' positive outranking flows and the second one contains the negative
#' outranking flows.
