Abridged to single-year mortality: Group probability is divided linearly · case 05

Single-year rates do not compound back to the group rate.

Member previewVariant 5 · 3 implementations · 7 checks per implementation

Case contract

Input groups [[start age, width n, nqx per 100000]]; groups must be contiguous from the first start (else 'gap at <start>'). An nqx of 100000 is the open group and ends the table. Each closed group yields n equal single-year rates 1-(1-nqx)^(1/n) rounded to 8.

Why this case matters

Life-table arithmetic compounds across ages, so one misplaced index or assumption shifts every downstream value.
