calculate an abridged or single age lifetable from abridged or single age data

Description

This is a wrapper around the other lifetable utilities. We start with either nMx, nqx, or lx in single or abridged ages, and returns a full lifetable in either single or abridged ages. All optional arguments of lt_abridged() or ⁠lt_single*()⁠ can be passed in, for instance the nax assumptions or the extrapolation arguments.

Usage

lt_ambiguous(
  nMx_or_nqx_or_lx = NULL,
  type = "m",
  Age = NULL,
  Sex = NULL,
  Single = FALSE,
  ...
)

Arguments

nMx_or_nqx_or_lx	numeric vector of either nMx, nqx, or lx
type	character, which variable is x?, either "m", "q", or "l". Default "m"
Age	integer vector of the lower age bounds of x
Sex	character, "m", "f", or "b".
Single	logical, do we want output in single ages?
...	optional arguments passed to lt_abridged() or ⁠lt_single*()⁠
