Computes the Horvitz-Thompson estimator of the population total according to a BE sampling design

1	E.BE(y, prob)

`y`	Vector, matrix or data frame containing the recollected information of the variables of interest for every unit in the selected sample
`prob`	Inclusion probability for each unit in the population

Returns the estimation of the population total of every single variable of interest, its estimated standard error and its estimated coefficient of variation under an BE sampling design

The function returns a data matrix whose columns correspond to the estimated parameters of the variables of interest
