Description
Das Gupta equation 3.54. internal function called by dg2pop.
Usage
dg354(df2, i, pop, factors, id_vars, ratefunction, quietly = TRUE)
Arguments
df2 |
list of 2 population dataframes, in which each one contains data for all factors for the relevant population, along with variables indicating population and subpopulations |
i |
the index of the factors vector which is not being adjusted for (the alpha in "P-alpha standardised rates") |
pop |
name (character string) of variable indicating population |
factors |
names (character vector) of variables indicating compositional factors |
id_vars |
character vector of variables indicating sub-populations |
ratefunction |
user defined character string in R syntax that when evaluated specifies the function defining the rate as a function of factors. if NULL then will assume rate is the product of all factors. |
quietly |
logical indicating whether interim messages should be outputted indicating progress |
Value
data.frame object including K-a standardised rates for each population for given factor a, along with differences between standardised rates
