Description: # recode
        
        Converts ICD-10 codes to CDC/NCHS Selected Causes of Death codes. 
        
        * ICD-10 stands for International Classification of Diseases v.10.
        * CDC stands for Centers for Diseases Control and Prevention.
        * NCHS stands for National Center for Health Statistics.
        
        To install run:
        ```
        pip install icd10_c2cdc
        ```
        
        How this can be used:
        ```
            from icd10_c2cdc import Recoder
            recoder = Recoder('tables/358 ICD-10 Recodes.txt')  # Read about tables below
            print(recoder)  # Prints a tree of the recodes' hierarchy
            print(recoder.get_codes('G20'))  # Prints related Causes of Death codes: ['18500', '18800']
        ```
        
        Recoder is based on NCHS text files that were downloaded from [ResDAC](https://www.resdac.org/search-data-variables?name=icd-10%20cause%20of%20death%20recodes), each file is a table that specify the grouping classification for each ICD-10 code. 
        These files had a few errors (for example, some "1" were mistakenly typed as the letter "l"), which we fixed.
        Download the fixed tables from [tables](https://github.com/gadkeidar/recode/tree/master/tables).
