""" Feature selection pipeline: a methods that can be used in the wrapper metod alongside other wrapper contents (hyperparameter tuning etc.).
(1) Establish methods for each of the steps in feature selection protocol.
(2) Ensure that above methods are given only a part of data and use appropriate random seeds - to later simulate use case in production.
(3) Implement a method which gives graphical exploration of (1) (a) and (b) steps of the feature selection.
(4) Prepare a core method that can be fit into a wrapper (see sklearn wrapper methods) and integrates methods from (1)

"""The method selects the best feature by testing the prediction on the feature set with or without the current feature.
The "remove" method removes a particular feature and predicts on the test set without it. The "add" method adds a particular
feature to the previously established feature set (stored_features). The best feature is selected dependent on the metric
specified as a parameter.
Args:
df (DataFrame): Input data on which the predictions will be made.
features (list): List of features to select the best/worst from
method (str, optional): remove or add features. Defaults to "remove".
ml_category (str, optional): Either classification or regression ml problem controls the ML algorithm and metric.
Defaults to "classification".
ml_subcategory (str, optional): In case of classification '_bin' for binary classification
and 'multi' for multiclass classification. For regression an empty string '' is sufficient.
Defaults to "bin".
metric (str, optional): Selected metric with which the best/worst feature will be determined. Defaults to "recall".
stored_features (list, optional): In case if method is 'add', stored features refer to the features that had been previously added. Defaults to [].
Raises:
ValueError: Raises if classification or regression metrics are not recognised if a specific ml_type is selected.
ValueError: If unknown ml_type is chosen.
Returns:
tuple: name of the best feature, best feature score, best feature score standard deviation.

(1) The method uses sklearn kBest method which selects k best features dependent on the ml_type parameter.
(2) The sequential features removal procedure is executed. Using the remaing features from (1).
The best score is detected using a removal procedure. The procedure sequentially removes the features

improved the next feature is remove otherwise there is a tolerance criteria (n_tolerance)
