file_name: The name of the LIS or LWS file.
variable: A string with the name of the variable for which Atkinson should be computed.
epsilon: A number with the inequality adversion parameter. Needs to be epsilon > 0.
weight: A string with the name of the variable in 'file' that should be used as sample weights.
