Assign single ages to 5-year abridged age groups. That means that age 0 is kept as a single age, ages 1-4 are grouped together as abridged age 1, and thereafter 5-year age groups are used.

calcAgeAbr(Age)

Arguments

Age

integer. Vector of single ages (lower bound).

Value

An integer vector of length(Age) indicating the abridged age group that each single age belongs to.

Details

In the case that the single Age vector starts at some age higher than 4, this is just the same as calcAgeN(Age,5,0).

Examples

Age <- 0:70 calcAgeAbr(Age)
#> [1] 0 1 1 1 1 5 5 5 5 5 10 10 10 10 10 15 15 15 15 15 20 20 20 20 20 #> [26] 25 25 25 25 25 30 30 30 30 30 35 35 35 35 35 40 40 40 40 40 45 45 45 45 45 #> [51] 50 50 50 50 50 55 55 55 55 55 60 60 60 60 60 65 65 65 65 65 70
calcAgeN(Age,5,0)
#> [1] 0 0 0 0 0 5 5 5 5 5 10 10 10 10 10 15 15 15 15 15 20 20 20 20 20 #> [26] 25 25 25 25 25 30 30 30 30 30 35 35 35 35 35 40 40 40 40 40 45 45 45 45 45 #> [51] 50 50 50 50 50 55 55 55 55 55 60 60 60 60 60 65 65 65 65 65 70
