dw_preprocess {rwlifetable}R Documentation

Pre-processes a data frame of deaths, exposed to risk or times of exposition to be used by the 'dw_crude_mx' function

Description

This function pre-processes a data frame (or matrix) of deaths, exposed to risk or times of exposition to be used by the 'dw_crude_mx' function when the data frame has a variable of ages in the first column and likely data are non-available for all the sequence of ages desired by the user. It creates a new data frame by inserting zeroes in the cells corresponding to the missing ages.

Usage

dw_preprocess(x, age.min = 0, age.max = 120)

Arguments

x

A data frame (or matrix) of deaths, exposed to risk or times of exposition with ages as first column.

age.min

A non-negative integer indicating the minimum age for the output object. Default, 0.

age.max

A non-negative integer indicating the maximum age for the output object. Default, 120.

Value

A data.frame containing the same columns as ‘x' except for the first one, as outlined in the function’s description.
