ewrates

<p>England and Wales mortality rates from lung cancer, nasal cancer,
and all causes 1936 - 1980. The 1936 rates are repeated as 1931 rates in
order to accommodate follow up for the <code>nickel</code> study.</p>

datasets

Functions for demographic and epidemiological analysis in
the Lexis diagram, i.e. register and cohort follow-up data. In
particular representation, manipulation, rate estimation and
simulation for multistate data - the Lexis suite of functions, which
includes interfaces to 'mstate', 'etm' and 'cmprsk' packages.
Contains functions for Age-Period-Cohort and Lee-Carter modeling and
a function for interval censored data and some useful functions for
tabulation and plotting, as well as a number of epidemiological data
sets.
