mortaar_plot_lx

Plots the survivorship lx for a single life table.

internal

A collection of functions for the analysis of archaeological mortality
data (on the topic see e.g. Chamberlain 2006
<https://books.google.de/books?id=nG5FoO_becAC&lpg=PA27&ots=LG0b_xrx6O&dq=life%20table%20archaeology&pg=PA27#v=onepage&q&f=false>).
It takes demographic data in different formats and displays the result in a standard life table
as well as plots the relevant indices (percentage of deaths, survivorship, probability of death,
life expectancy, percentage of population). It also checks for possible biases in the age
structure and applies corrections to life tables.
