Generates a randomized tournament with random outcomes

1	randomtourney(n, matchups = 2, pties = 0, ints = 100, type = "char")

`n`	Number of individuals in tournament
`matchups`	Number of times individuals compete in tournament. Can be a numeric input, or, if `matchups`="random" interactions are random
`pties`	Probability of each individual matchup ending in a tie. Default is 0, i.e. no ties. Needs to be a number between 0 and 1.
`ints`	The number of interactions in the tournament if matchups are set to random.
`type`	Whether to return results as W/L characters or 1/2 numbers. `type`="char" is the default, `type`="nums" returns 1/2 numbers referring to winner as id1 or id2

A competition results dataframe

Specify number of individuals to compete in a tournament and the number of times they compete with each other. Winners and losers are determined at random. The resulting dataframe will have variables: id1, id2, result. Result refers to the outcome from id1's perspective, i.e. a "W" refers to id1 beating id2, and a "L" refers to id2 beating id1. Individuals are referred to by a random assignment of two conjoined letters.
