#' riskParityPortfolio: Design of Risk Parity Portfolios
#'
#' Fast design of risk parity portfolios for financial investment.
#' The goal of the risk parity portfolio formulation is to equalize or distribute
#' the risk contributions of the different assets, which is missing if we simply
#' consider the overall volatility of the portfolio as in the mean-variance
#' Markowitz portfolio. In addition to the vanilla formulation, where the risk
#' contributions are perfectly equalized subject to no shortselling and budget
#' constraints, many other formulations are considered that allow for box
#' constraints and shortselling, as well as the inclusion of additional
#' objectives like the expected return and overall variance. See vignette for
#' a detailed documentation and comparison, with several illustrative examples.
