mT.round {MortalityTables}

Round all components of a mortality table to the given number of digits

Description

The function mt.round rounds all components (base table, potentially also trend functions or yearly improvement factors) to the given number of numerical digits. For pensionTable objects, the function is applied to all components

Usage

mT.round(object, digits = 8)

## S4 method for signature 'mortalityTable'
mT.round(object, digits = 8)

## S4 method for signature 'mortalityTable.period'
mT.round(object, digits = 8)

## S4 method for signature 'mortalityTable.trendProjection'
mT.round(object, digits = 8)

## S4 method for signature 'mortalityTable.improvementFactors'
mT.round(object, digits = 8)

## S4 method for signature 'array'
mT.round(object, digits = 8)

## S4 method for signature 'list'
mT.round(object, digits = 8)

## S4 method for signature 'pensionTable'
mT.round(object, digits = 8)

## S4 method for signature 'mortalityTable.observed'
mT.round(object, digits = 8)

Arguments

object

The mortalityTable object to be rounded (or a list / array of mortalityTable object)

digits

the desired number of significant digits to round to

Methods (by class)

• mT.round(mortalityTable): Round the given mortalityTable to a given number of digits

• mT.round(mortalityTable.period): Round the given period mortality table to a given number of digits (base table and loadings)

• mT.round(mortalityTable.trendProjection): Round the given mortalityTable with trend projection to a given number of digits (base table, loadings and trend(s))

• mT.round(mortalityTable.improvementFactors): Round the given mortalityTable with improvement factors to a given number of digits (base table, loadings and improvement factors)

• mT.round(array): Round the mortalityTables stored in an array to a given number of digits

• mT.round(list): Round the mortalityTables stored in a list to a given number of digits

• mT.round(pensionTable): Round all components of a pensionTable to a given number of digits

• mT.round(mortalityTable.observed): Return the life table with the values rounded to the given number of digits

Examples

mortalityTables.load("Austria_Census")
AT.rounded1 = mT.round(mort.AT.census.2011.male, 1)
AT.rounded2 = mT.round(mort.AT.census.2011.male, 2)
AT.rounded3 = mT.round(mort.AT.census.2011.male, 3)
plotMortalityTables(mort.AT.census.2001.male,
                    mT.setName(AT.rounded1, "rounded to 1 digit"),
                    mT.setName(AT.rounded3, "rounded to 3 digits"))
