age = age in years; n years = number of years spent in the ageclass; s(x) = number of individuals sampled per ageclass; s(x)% = percentage of sample per ageclass; l(x) = cumulative survival; p(x) = age-specific survival from age x to age x + 1; d(x) = cumulative mortality; q(x) = age-specific mortality from age x to age x + 1; e(x) = age-specific life expectancy.
