RunConsiderationSet(YObservedInput, XConsidInput, XSelectInput, NumOpts,
  ASCConsid = 0, ASCSelect = 0, IncludedInput = 0 * YObservedInput + 1,
  meth = "L-BFGS-B", Tolerance = 1e-05)

`YObservedInput`	A vector of observed choices acting as response variable
`XConsidInput`	A vector or matrix of choices potential to be included in consideration set
`XSelectInput`	A vector or matrix of choices potential to be selected from consideration set (i.e., must be among `XConsidInput`)
`NumOpts`	Number of options for consideration set
`ASCConsid`	Binary flag for whether users want ASC (i.e., intercept) in Consideration (i.e., choice). Default is 0.
`ASCSelect`	Binary flag for whether users want ASC (i.e., intercept) in Selection (i.e., choice). Default is 0.
`IncludedInput`	A vector or matrix of which choices are available; default is that every choice is available all the time.
`meth`	Method of optimal function, default is method "L-BFGS-B". Other methods available are "BFGS", "CG", "SANN", "Brent".
`Tolerance`	Controls the convergence of the "L-BFGS-B" method. Convergence occurs when the reduction in the objective is within this factor of the machine tolerance. Default is a tolerance of about 1e-5.

A list object containing likelihood for consideration set model, likelihood for logit model, and the coefficient for all coviriates in Consideration and Selection. If we set ASCConsid/ASCSelect to be 1, the output will include ASC in Consideration/Selection.
