q1to5

Convert 1-year life table probabilities of dying 1qx to standard five-year age groups: 0, 1-4, 5-9, etc.

Model age schedules of mortality, nqx, suitable for a life table. This package
implements the SVD-Comp mortality model indexed by either child or child/adult mortality.
Given input value(s) of either 5q0 or (5q0, 45q15), the qx() function generates
single-year 1qx or 5-year 5qx conditional age-specific probabilities of dying.
