segCoverageFromAges

a chunk of data (single sex, year, region, etc) with all columns required by <code>ggb()</code>

codi

an integer vector of ages, either returned from <code>ggbgetAgesFit</code> or user-supplied.

agesFit

For a single year/sex/region of data (formatted as required by <code>seg()</code>, <code>ggbseg()</code>), what is the registration coverage implied by a given age range? Called by <code>segCoverageFromYear()</code> and  <code>ggbsegCoverageFromYear()</code>. Here, the function simply takes the arithmetic mean of a given age range of <code>$Cx</code>, as returned by <code>segMakeColumns()</code> or <code>ggbsegMakeColumns()</code>. Not intended for top-level use.

A set of three two-census methods to the estimate the degree of death registration coverage for a population. Implemented methods include the Generalized Growth Balance method (GGB), the Synthetic Extinct Generation method (SEG), and a hybrid of the two, GGB-SEG. Each method offers automatic estimation, but users may also specify exact parameters or use a graphical interface to guess parameters in the traditional way if desired.

segCoverageFromAges: given a set of ages, what is the implied death registration coverage?
