Output is ordered in the same order as the input. A logical column ismajor indicates if the code is a parent Category.

explain_table(...)

## Default S3 method:
explain_table(
  x,
  short_code = guess_short(x),
  condense = FALSE,
  brief = TRUE,
  warn = TRUE,
  ...
)

## S3 method for class 'icd9'
explain_table(...)

## S3 method for class 'icd10'
explain_table(...)

## S3 method for class 'icd9cm'
explain_table(
  x,
  short_code = guess_short(x),
  condense = FALSE,
  brief = TRUE,
  warn = TRUE,
  ...
)

## S3 method for class 'icd10cm'
explain_table(
  x,
  short_code = guess_short(x),
  condense = FALSE,
  brief = TRUE,
  warn = TRUE,
  ...
)

## S3 method for class 'icd10who'
explain_table(
  x,
  short_code = guess_short(x),
  condense = FALSE,
  brief = TRUE,
  warn = TRUE,
  ...
)

`...`	arguments passed on to other functions
`x`	vector or other structure of ICD codes to explain in human language
`short_code`	single logical value which determines whether the ICD-9 code provided is in short (`TRUE`) or decimal (`FALSE`) form. Where reasonable, this is guessed from the input data.
`condense`	single logical value which indicates whether to condense the given set of ICD-9 codes by replacing subsets of codes with 'parent' codes which exactly encompass certain subsets. E.g. If all cholera diagnoses are provided, only '001 - Cholera' needs to be displayed, not all sub-types.
`brief`	single logical value, default is `FALSE`. If `TRUE`, the short description from the canonical CMS descriptions will be used, otherwise the long description is used.
`warn`	single logical value, default is `TRUE`, meaning that codes which do not correspond to diagnoses, or to three-digit codes, will trigger a warning.

If the code is both a valid ICD9 and a ICD10 the output will default the descriptions to ICD10. The code would otherwise have to be explicitly cast to get ICD9 descriptions.

A column for source year may be added in the future. Other changes may occur this new feature gets testing and use.

If the input x is of mixed type it will choose to convert by

data frame with fields for ICD-9 code, name and description. The ordering is in the same order as input, including rows filled with NA for invalid input codes

default: explaining ICD codes from a character vector, guessing ICD version
icd9: from vector of ICD-9 codes.
icd10: from vector of ICD-10 codes.
icd9cm: explain character vector of ICD-9-CM codes
icd10cm: explain character vector of ICD1-10-CM codes
icd10who: explain character vector of ICD-10-WHO codes
