make the Bennett-Horiuchi quasi life table columns required by the estimation method

Description

Called by segCoverageFromYear(). This simply modulates some code that would otherwise be repeated. Users probably don't need to call this function directly.

Usage

segMakeColumns(
  codi,
  minA = 15,
  maxA = 75,
  eOpen = NULL,
  nx.method = 2,
  deaths.summed = FALSE,
  mig.summed = deaths.summed,
  delta = FALSE,
  exact.ages.ggb = NULL,
  lm.method = "oldschool",
  opt.method = "r2",
  minAges.ggb = 8
)

Arguments

codi	data.frame with columns, $pop1, $pop2, $deaths, $date1, $date2, $sex, $age, and $id (to indicate regions, periods, sexes).
minA	the lowest age to be included in search
maxA	the highest age to be included in search (the lower bound thereof)
eOpen	optional. A user-specified value for remaining life-expectancy in the open age group.
nx.method	either 2 or 4. 4 is smoother.
deaths.summed	logical. is the deaths column given as the total per age in the intercensal period (TRUE). By default we assume FALSE, i.e. that the average annual was given.
mig.summed	logical. Is the (optional) net migration column mig given as the total per age in the intercensal period (TRUE). By default we assume FALSE, i.e. that the average annual was given.
delta	logical. Do we perform the so-called delta adjustment?
exact.ages.ggb	optional vector of ages used to estimate GGB coverage (if delta is TRUE)
lm.method	character, one of: "oldschool" default sd ratio operation of still unknown origin "lm" or "ols" for a simple linear model "tls", "orthogonal", or "deming" for total least squares "tukey", "resistant", or ""median" for Tukey's resistant line method
opt.method	what kind of residual do we minimize? choices "RMS","logRMS", "ORSS", "logORSS" (experimental)
minAges.ggb	the minimum number of adjacent ages to be used in estimating GGB coverage.

Value

codi, with many columns added, most importantly $Cx.
