Re: [R] Package demography - calculating percentiles of survival probabilities distribution

Hi David, thanks for your patience and your comment. Unfortunately, your code - if I understood it correctly - is still not what I am looking for. I try to describe an example as you suggested: I assume that the Lee-Carter-Forecast-Modell generates different sample paths or simulation runs, e.g.

[R] Package demography - calculating quintiles of survival probabilities

Hi, I am using the package demography from Rob Hyndman for the Lee-Carter-Model. It is an amazing powerful tool but I am struggling with one issue: *I want to compute different quintiles for the cumulative survival probability derived from the Lee-Carter-Forecast (e.g. the 50%-quintile,

[R] Counting the loop-round of a for-loop

Dear all, i have daily stock prices for more than 10 years and want to compute annual volatilities for certain dates during this period. Since i have found no easy way to work with time data, the data presents itself in the structure TIme Index - Stock Price 1 - 15,6 2 - 17 ... ... 2010 - 28

[R] How to do a target value search analogous to Excel Solver

Hi all, i'm trying to find a solver possibility analogous to the Excel Solver in R. Since i just started with R, I have only little knowledge. Can someone help me by solving the problem? I have the following 'starting position': z = rnorm(1,0,1) y - function(x,z){2*x - 1 + z} I am looking for
