Description: # Python ASCVD
        
        Install it: `pip install ascvd`
        
        Should be compatible with Python 2 and 3 alike.
        
        Should agree with http://tools.acc.org/ASCVD-Risk-Estimator-Plus/#!/calculate/estimate/
        
        Code mostly borrowed from https://github.com/cerner/ascvd-risk-calculator
        
        Referring to the README for that project, this calculates the ASCVD risk according 
        to the [2013 ACC/AHA Guideline on the Assessment of Cardiovascular Risk](http://circ.ahajournals.org/content/circulationaha/129/25_suppl_2/S49.full.pdf)
        and the [2013 ACC/AHA Guideline on the Treatment of Blood Cholesterol to Reduce Atherosclerotic Cardiovascular Risk in Adults](http://circ.ahajournals.org/content/circulationaha/129/25_suppl_2/S1.full.pdf). 
        
        
        ## Documentation:
        
        It's a single function.
        
        ```
        compute_ten_year_score -> int
            Args:
                isMale (bool)
                isBlack (bool)
                smoker (bool)
                hypertensive (bool)
                diabetic (bool)
                age (int)
                systolicBloodPressure (int)
                totalCholesterol (int)
                hdl (int)
        ```
        
        ## Contributing
        
        This could really use some tests! The code right now pretty much just assumes
        that the good folks at Cerner are superhumans who don't make mistakes.
