The actLifer package contains functions that create a life table based on mortality data, and ultimately calculates life expectancy from data on annual deaths for given ages/age groups. This package also contains mortality data from CDC wonder.
This package will be useful for actuaries, epidemiologists, or any data scientists working with mortality data.
You can install the development version of actLifer from GitHub with:
You can install the reslease version of actLifer from CRAN with:
