uxAbove100

Educate mx or qx on how to behave above age 100 if it gets in trouble
(with NA's, zero's and Inf)

Fit the most popular human mortality 'laws', and construct
full and abridge life tables given various input indices. A mortality
law is a parametric function that describes the dying-out process of
individuals in a population during a significant portion of their
life spans. For a comprehensive review of the most important mortality
laws see Tabeau (2001) <doi:10.1007/0-306-47562-6_1>.
Practical functions for downloading data from various human mortality
databases are provided as well.

uxAbove100 function

<dl><dt>x</dt>
<dd>Numeric vector of ages at the beginning of each age interval. 
For a full life table, use single-year ages (e.g., <code>0:110</code>). 
For an abridged life table, use the lower bound of each interval 
(e.g., <code>c(0, 1, 5, 10, ..., 110)</code>).</dd>
<dt>ux</dt>
<dd>A vector of mx or qx.</dd>
<dt>omega</dt>
<dd>Threshold age. Default: 100.</dd>
<dt>verbose</dt>
<dd>A logical value. Set <code>verbose = FALSE</code> to silent
the process that take place inside the function and avoid progress messages.</dd></dl>
