#' Summarizing microsynth Fits and Results
#'
#' Summary method for class 'microsynth'.
#'
#' @return The functions \code{print.microsynth} and
#' \code{summary.microsynth} display information about the microsynth
#' fit and estimation results, if available.
#'
#' The output includes two parts: 1) a matching summary that compares
#' characteristics of the treatment to the synthetic control and the
#' population; and 2) estimated results, in a similar format as they
#' appear when saved to .csv or .xlsx., once for each specified
#' post-intervention evaluation time.
#'
#' @param object A \code{microsynth} object produced by \code{microsynth()}
#' @param ... further arguments passed to or from other methods.
#'
#' @export

#' Displaying microsynth Fits and Results
#'
#' Print method for class 'microsynth'.

#' fit and estimation results, if available.

#' The output includes two parts: 1) a display of key input parameters;
#' and 2) estimated results, in a similar format as they
#' appear when saved to .csv or .xlsx., once for each specified
