Plot population pyramid

Usage

plot_pyr(
  popm,
  popf,
  popm2 = NULL,
  popf2 = NULL,
  age,
  sexn = c("Males", "Females"),
  sexc = c("#ED0000B2", "#00468BB2"),
  age.cont = NULL,
  un.intervals = TRUE
)

Arguments

popm

Numeric vector of male population

popf

Numeric vector of female population

popm2

Optional. Numeric vector of second male population to be plotted as line.

popf2

Optional. Numeric vector of second female population to be plotted as line.

age

Numeric vector of ages

sexn

Character array of labels for the sexes. By default = c("Males", "Females")

sexc

Character array of colors for the sexes. By default = c("#ED0000B2","#00468BB2"), which are red and blue

age.cont

Optional. Logical. Should the age axis be considered as continuous scale? Recommend to switch to TRUE if the age intervals are small (1 year) and FALSE otherwise (for ex., when age interval is 5 years). By default function chooses the value by itself.

un.intervals

Logical. Should the age groups be unified? For example, if the first and second groups are 0-1, 1-4, and all other groups are five-year, the function automatically makes the group 1-4 to make all the intervals the same. By default, TRUE.

Value
