The package also features commands to easily and +consistently position precedence numbers above or below statuses +in symbols for multiple lives contracts. + +Since actuarial notation can get quite involved, the package defines a +number of shortcut macros to ease entry of the most common elements. +Appendix A of the package documentation lists the commands to typeset +a large selection of symbols of life contingencies. + +## License + +LaTeX Project Public License, version 1.3c or (at your option) any +later version. + +## Version + +1.1 (2019-06-13) + +## Authors + +David Beauchemin <david.beauchemin.5@ulaval.ca>, Vincent Goulet +<vincent.goulet@act.ulaval.ca> + +## Dependency + +This package requires package **actuarialangle** (version v2.0 dated +2017/04/10 or above is needed to typeset the documentation). + +## Installation + +The package is part of TeX Live and MiKTeX. If it is not already +installed on your system, run `actuarialsymbol.dtx` through LaTeX with, +for example, + + pdflatex actuarialsymbol.dtx + +and copy `actuarialsymbol.sty` where LaTeX can find it. + +## Documentation + +File `actuarialsymbol.pdf` contains the complete documentation of the +package. If needed, the documentation can be generated from the +sources using the following commands: + + pdflatex actuarialsymbol.dtx + makeindex -s gglo.ist -o actuarialsymbol.gls actuarialsymbol.glo + pdflatex actuarialsymbol.dtx + +## Version history + +See the documentation. |
