Gini coefficient of a life table

Usage

gini(age, mx, ...)

Arguments

age: Numeric array of age intervals
mx: Numeric array with age specific mortality rates.
...: Optional. Additional arguments for LT() function.

Value

A list with two components: Gini, itself a list with the relative Gini coefficient G0 and the absolute Gini coefficient G0_abs; and plot, a data frame with columns Fx and Phix for drawing the Lorenz curve.

Examples

age <- 0:5
mx <- c(0.02, 0.01, 0.012, 0.015, 0.02, 0.03)
gini(age, mx)$Gini
