Age pyramid from a population at a given time.

Description

Reduce a population containing all individuals (with some characteristics) to an age-groups data frame (preserving characteristics). The function computes the number of individuals at time in each age group [ages[i],ages[i+1][, for i in {1,...,N-1}.
