Median and quantile future lifetime: Degenerate quantiles are accepted · case 02

p=0 or p=1000 returns a time instead of invalid.

Case contract

Input l (from age x) and p (per mille surviving, 0<p<1000 else 'invalid'; also l_0<=0). Find the first t with l_t <= l_0 p/1000 and interpolate linearly: t-1 + (l_{t-1}-target)/(l_{t-1}-l_t). No crossing -> 'beyond table'. Rounded to 6.

Why this case matters

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

One recorded failure

Sample boundary fixture

This sample comes from the broken implementation of a controlled reproducer.
