e0: United Nations Time Series of Life Expectancy

Description

Datasets containing the United Nations time series of the life expectancy (e0) for all countries of the world as available in 2012. Datasets e0F and e0F_supplemental contain estimates for female historical e0; e0M and e0M_supplemental contain estimates for male historical e0. The *_supplemental datasets contain a subset of countries for which data prior 1950 are available. Datasets e0Mproj and e0Fproj contain projections of male and female e0, respectively. Datasets *80l, *95l are the lower bounds of 80 and 95% probability intervals, *80u, *95u are the corresponding upper bounds.
