<h2>Details</h2>
<p>The base <spanstyle="R">R</span> function <code><ahref="https://rdrr.io/r/base/sample.html"class="external-link">sample()</a></code> is used for generating values.</p>
<p>Generated values are based on the latest EUCAST guideline implemented in the <ahref="rsi_translation.html">rsi_translation</a> data set. To create specific generated values per bug or drug, set the <code>mo</code> and/or <code>ab</code> argument.</p>
The <ahref="lifecycle.html">lifecycle</a> of this function is <strong>stable</strong>. In a stable function, major changes are unlikely. This means that the unlying code will generally evolve by adding new arguments; removing arguments or changing the meaning of existing arguments will be avoided.</p>
<p>If the unlying code needs breaking changes, they will occur gradually. For example, an argument will be deprecated and first continue to work, but will emit a message informing you of the change. Next, typically after at least one newly released version on CRAN, the message will be transformed to an error.</p>
<p>On our website <ahref="https://msberends.github.io/AMR/">https://msberends.github.io/AMR/</a> you can find <ahref="https://msberends.github.io/AMR/articles/AMR.html">a comprehensive tutorial</a> about how to conduct AMR data analysis, the <ahref="https://msberends.github.io/AMR/reference/">complete documentation of all functions</a> and <ahref="https://msberends.github.io/AMR/articles/WHONET.html">an example analysis using WHONET data</a>.</p>
