In DasGuptR: Das Gupta Standardisation and Decomposition

Das Gupta equation 3.54. internal function called by dg2pop.

Description

Das Gupta equation 3.54. internal function called by dg2pop.

Usage

dg354(df2, i, pop, factors, id_vars, ratefunction, quietly = TRUE)

Arguments

df2	list of 2 population dataframes, in which each one contains data for all factors for the relevant population, along with variables indicating population and subpopulations
i	the index of the factors vector which is not being adjusted for (the alpha in "P-alpha standardised rates")
pop	name (character string) of variable indicating population
factors	names (character vector) of variables indicating compositional factors
id_vars	character vector of variables indicating sub-populations
ratefunction	user defined character string in R syntax that when evaluated specifies the function defining the rate as a function of factors. if NULL then will assume rate is the product of all factors.
quietly	logical indicating whether interim messages should be outputted indicating progress

Value

data.frame object including K-a standardised rates for each population for given factor a, along with differences between standardised rates
