 * This class contains functionality used by the IS class
 * in the version 2.3.0, 2.3.1, 2.4, and 2.5 packages
 *
 * Note: The class description below has been excerpted from the Hl7 2.4 documentation. Sectional
 * references made below also refer to the same documentation.
 *
 * The value of such a field follows the formatting rules for a ST field except that it is
 * drawn from a site-defined (or user-defined) table of legal values. There shall be an HL7
 * table number associated with IS data types. An example of an IS field is the Event reason
 * code defined in Section 3.3.1.4, "Event reason code." This data type should be used only for
 * user-defined tables (see Section 2.7.6, "Table"). The reverse is not true, since in some
 * circumstances, it is more appropriate to use the CE data type for user-defined tables.
