#' Antibiotic Selectors
#'
#' These functions allow for filtering rows and selecting columns based on antibiotic test results that are of a specific antibiotic class or group, without the need to define the columns or antibiotic abbreviations. In short, if you have a column name that resembles an antimicrobial drug, it will be picked up by any of these functions that matches its pharmaceutical class: "cefazolin", "CZO" and "J01DB04" will all be picked up by [cephalosporins()].
#' @param ab_class an antimicrobial class or a part of it, such as `"carba"` and `"carbapenems"`. The columns `group`, `atc_group1` and `atc_group2` of the [antibiotics] data set will be searched (case-insensitive) for this value.
#' @param filter an [expression] to be evaluated in the [antibiotics] data set, such as `name %like% "trim"`
#' @param only_sir_columns a [logical] to indicate whether only columns of class `sir` must be selected (defaults to `FALSE`), see [as.sir()]
#' @param only_treatable a [logical] to indicate whether antimicrobial drugs should be excluded that are only for laboratory tests (defaults to `TRUE`), such as gentamicin-high (`GEH`) and imipenem/EDTA (`IPE`)
#' @param ... ignored, only in place to allow future extensions
#' @details
#' These functions can be used in data set calls for selecting columns and filtering rows. They are heavily inspired by the [Tidyverse selection helpers][tidyselect::language] such as [`everything()`][tidyselect::everything()], but also work in base \R and not only in `dplyr` verbs. Nonetheless, they are very convenient to use with `dplyr` functions such as [`select()`][dplyr::select()], [`filter()`][dplyr::filter()] and [`summarise()`][dplyr::summarise()], see *Examples*.
#'
#' All columns in the data in which these functions are called will be searched for known antibiotic names, abbreviations, brand names, and codes (ATC, EARS-Net, WHO, etc.) according to the [antibiotics] data set. This means that a selector such as [aminoglycosides()] will pick up column names like 'gen', 'genta', 'J01GB03', 'tobra', 'Tobracin', etc.
#'
#' The [ab_class()] function can be used to filter/select on a manually defined antibiotic class. It searches for results in the [antibiotics] data set within the columns `group`, `atc_group1` and `atc_group2`.
#' @section Full list of supported (antibiotic) classes:
#'

#' example_isolates[any(carbapenems() == "R"), penicillins()]

#' # You can combine selectors with '&' to be more specific. For example,

#' # drugs are both omitted since benzylpenicillin is not administrable per os
#' # and erythromycin is not a penicillin:
#' example_isolates[, penicillins() & administrable_per_os()]
#'
#' # ab_selector() applies a filter in the `antibiotics` data set and is thus very
#' # flexible. For instance, to select antibiotic columns with an oral DDD of at
#' # least 1 gram:

#' @rdname antibiotic_class_selectors

#' @details The [not_intrinsic_resistant()] function can be used to only select antibiotic columns that pose no intrinsic resistance for the microorganisms in the data set. For example, if a data set contains only microorganism codes or names of *E. coli* and *K. pneumoniae* and contains a column "vancomycin", this column will be removed (or rather, unselected) using this function. It currently applies `r format_eucast_version_nr(names(EUCAST_VERSION_EXPERT_RULES[length(EUCAST_VERSION_EXPERT_RULES)]))` to determine intrinsic resistance, using the [eucast_rules()] function internally. Because of this determination, this function is quite slow in terms of performance.
