<p>To interpret MIC values as RSI values, use <code><a href="as.rsi.html">as.rsi()</a></code> on MIC values. It supports guidelines from EUCAST (2013-2022) and CLSI (2013-2022).</p>
<p>This class for MIC values is a quite a special data type: formally it is an ordered <a href="https://rdrr.io/r/base/factor.html" class="external-link">factor</a> with valid MIC values as <a href="https://rdrr.io/r/base/factor.html" class="external-link">factor</a> levels (to make sure only valid MIC values are retained), but for any mathematical operation it acts as decimal numbers:</p>

Some functions of the <code>stats</code> package are also implemented: <code><a href="https://rdrr.io/r/stats/median.html" class="external-link">median()</a></code>, <code><a href="https://rdrr.io/r/stats/quantile.html" class="external-link">quantile()</a></code>, <code><a href="https://rdrr.io/r/stats/mad.html" class="external-link">mad()</a></code>, <code><a href="https://rdrr.io/r/stats/IQR.html" class="external-link">IQR()</a></code>, <code><a href="https://rdrr.io/r/stats/fivenum.html" class="external-link">fivenum()</a></code>. Also, <code><a href="https://rdrr.io/r/grDevices/boxplot.stats.html" class="external-link">boxplot.stats()</a></code> is supported. Since <code><a href="https://rdrr.io/r/stats/sd.html" class="external-link">sd()</a></code> and <code><a href="https://rdrr.io/r/stats/cor.html" class="external-link">var()</a></code> are non-generic functions, these could not be extended. Use <code><a href="https://rdrr.io/r/stats/mad.html" class="external-link">mad()</a></code> as an alternative, or use e.g. <code>sd(as.numeric(x))</code> where <code>x</code> is your vector of MIC values.</p>
<p>Using <code><a href="https://rdrr.io/r/base/double.html" class="external-link">as.double()</a></code> or <code><a href="https://rdrr.io/r/base/numeric.html" class="external-link">as.numeric()</a></code> on MIC values will remove the operators and return a numeric vector. Do <strong>not</strong> use <code><a href="https://rdrr.io/r/base/integer.html" class="external-link">as.integer()</a></code> on MIC values as by the <span style="R">R</span> convention on <a href="https://rdrr.io/r/base/factor.html" class="external-link">factor</a>s, it will return the index of the factor levels (which is often useless for regular users).</p>
<p>Use <code><a href="https://rdrr.io/r/base/droplevels.html" class="external-link">droplevels()</a></code> to drop unused levels. At default, it will return a plain factor. Use <code>droplevels(..., as.mic = TRUE)</code> to maintain the <code>mic</code> class.</p>
<p><code>NA_mic_</code> is a missing value of the new <code>mic</code> class, analogous to e.g. base <span style="R">R</span>'s <code><a href="https://rdrr.io/r/base/NA.html" class="external-link">NA_character_</a></code>.</p>
