Description: Fit the most popular human mortality 'laws', and construct
        full and abridge life tables given various input indices. A
        mortality law is a parametric function that describes the
        dying-out process of individuals in a population during a
        significant portion of their life spans. For a comprehensive
        review of the most important mortality laws see Tabeau (2001)
        <doi:10.1007/0-306-47562-6_1>. Practical functions for
        downloading data from various human mortality databases are
        provided as well.
