interest. The dataframe will contain information on age-specific mortality rates
or survivial probability (if both parameters are provided, rates will be used).
- age
Variable in data
containing information on age.
- rates
Variable in data
containing information on age-specific mortality rates.
- surv
Variable in data
containing information on age-specific survival probability.
- data0

- age_specific
Specific age at which the Life Years Lost have to be estimated.
- censoring_label
Label for censoring status ("Alive"
by default).
- death_labels
Label for event status ("Dead"
by default).
- tau
Remaining life expectancy and Life Years Lost are estimated restrictied to a maximum
theoretical age \(\tau\) (\(\tau\)=100 years by default).
