Rates in age-period form

Source: R/scaling.R
tda_rap.Rd

TDA's rap: builds age-period tables from starting time, cohort, ending time and destination variables.

Usage

tda_rap(cohort, entry_year, exit_year, destination, years, ages, ...)

Arguments

cohort, entry_year, exit_year, destination

integer vectors, one entry per case: birth year, year of entry into observation, year of exit, and the destination code (0 censored). The engine requires cohort <= entry_year <= exit_year.

years, ages

length-2 table ranges.

...

passed to tda_run.

Value

table, the rate table TDA wrote, and output.

Examples

# three subjects born 1960/1961, observed 1980-1986: the risk
# table fills along the Lexis diagonals
r <- tda_rap(cohort = c(60, 61, 60), entry_year = c(80, 82, 83),
             exit_year = c(85, 86, 86), destination = c(1, 1, 0),
             years = c(80, 86), ages = c(18, 26))
