stoner_life_table R Documentation
Calculate life expectancy table
Description
Normally this will be called internally from
stoner_calculate_dalys, but for testing purposes is also exposed.
Usage
stoner_life_table(con, touchstone, year_min, year_max, char_countries = TRUE)
Arguments
con
DBI connection to a Montagu database. Used for retrieving
demographic data for life expectancy.
touchstone
The touchstone (including version); the demographic
data retrieved will be specific to this touchstone.
year_min
The first year of the range in which to calculate DALYs.
(Default 2000)
year_max
The final year of the range in which to calculate DALYs.
(Default 2100)
char_countries
A logical that if TRUE specifies that the countries
in the resulting life table should be expressed in 3-character form, or
otherwise numerical.
Value
A data.frame with columns value and .code. The value is the
expected years of life left for a person in a particular country, a
particular year, and of a particular age. The .code is in the form
country-year-age, and both year and age are interpolated to
single years (whereas the UNWPP life table data is mostly in 5-year bands).
