make_inheritance_checks

Check that a set of arguments inherits from a set of classes
Throws an exception if one argument does not pass the checks.
Argument must have AT LEAST ONE of the specified classes to pass.

A collection of methods for commonly undertaken analytical
tasks, primarily developed for Public Health Scotland (PHS) analysts,
but the package is also generally useful to others working in the
healthcare space, particularly since it has functions for working with
Community Health Index (CHI) numbers. The package can help to make
data manipulation and analysis more efficient and reproducible.
