getAgeInDays

Function computes for a given date the correct age in days.

This toolkit allows performing continuous-time microsimulation for a wide range of life science (demography, social sciences, epidemiology) applications. Individual life-courses are specified by a continuous-time multi-state model as described in Zinn (2014) <doi:10.34196/IJM.00105>.
