AutoSULT-packageR Documentation

Automatic Mortality Table Problem Generation

Description

Code to automatically generate selected types of problems and solutions from Chapters 3, 4, 5, 8, and 10 of Actuarial Mathematics for Life Contingent Risks, 3rd edition, by Dickson, Hardy, and Waters. The problems generated make use of the Standard Ultimate Survival Model (SUSM) a.k.a. Standard Ultimate Life Table (SULT), a mortality table based on Makeham's law and defined on pg. 82 of AMLCR3e. Problems and solutions are typeset in LaTeX and rendered to PDF files.

Examples

# Generate 15 problems total from Ch.3 (1 of type 1, 4 of type 2, etc.)
Ch3QA(probspec = c(1, 4, 2, 0, 3, 5))

# Generate 2 problems of each type from Ch.4.
Ch4QA(probspertype = 2)

# Generate 10 problems from among the 13 Ch. 5 problem types.
probvec <- sample(1:13, 10, TRUE)
for (i in 1:13) probvec[i] <- sum(probvec == i)
Ch5QA(probspec = probvec)
