+# actuarialsymbol
+
+Package `actuarialsymbol` provides commands to compose
+actuarial symbols of life contingencies and financial mathematics
+characterized by subscripts and superscripts on both sides of a
+principal symbol. The package also features commands to easily and
+consistently position precedence numbers above or below statuses
+in symbols for multiple lives contracts.
+
+Since the 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.

+% \section{Introduction}
+% \label{sec:introduction}
+%
+% Actuaries denote various quantities of life contingencies like
+% present values of life insurances and life annuities, annual
+% premiums, or reserves using a whole array of symbols. The highly
+% descriptive, yet compact, notation was standardized as far back as
+% in 1898 \citep{Wolthuis:notation:2004}. \autoref{fig:mosaic} shows a
+% creative use of the notation by the graduating class of 1972 in
+% Actuarial Science at Université Laval.
+%
+% \begin{figure}[t]
+%   \centering
+%   \includegraphics[width=\linewidth]{mosaic}
+%   \caption{``Actuariat'' (French for Actuarial Science) written
+%     using actuarial symbols on the 1972 graduating class mosaic at
+%     Université Laval}
+%   \label{fig:mosaic}
+% \end{figure}
+%
+% \citet[Appendix~4]{Bowers:2e:1997} offer an excellent overview of
+% the composition rules for symbols of actuarial functions. In a
+% nutshell, a principal symbol, say $S$, is combined with auxiliary
+% symbols positioned in subscript or in superscript, to the left or to
+% the right. Schematically, we thus have:
+% \begin{equation}
+%   \label{schema1}
+%   \actsymb[\fbox{\scriptsize I}\!\;][\fbox{\scriptsize II}\!\;]%
+%      {\framebox[5ex]{$S$}}{\,\fbox{\scriptsize III}}%
+%      [\,\fbox{\scriptsize IV}]
+% \end{equation}
+%
+% The principal symbol is in general a single letter. The letter may
+% be ``accented'' with a bar ($\bar{A}$), double dots ($\ddot{a}$) or
+% a circle ($\mathring{e}$). When the principal symbol consists of two
+% letters, they are grouped between parentheses, as in $\IA$ or
+% $\DA*$. Most commonly, there are alphanumeric statuses in the
+% lower-right position \fbox{\small III}. Numerals can be placed above
+% or below the individual statuses to show the order of failure; we
+% will refer to these numerals as \emph{precedence numbers}. Otherwise,
+% auxiliary symbols appear lower-left \fbox{\small I}, upper-left
+% \fbox{\small II} and upper-right \fbox{\small IV}, in that order of
+% frequency.
+%
+% Principle symbols for benefit premiums, reserves and amount of
+% reduced paid-up insurance, $P$, $V$ and $W$, are combined with
+% benefit symbols unless the benefit is a level unit insurance payable
+% at the end of the year of death. In such cases, we have the
+% following symbol structure (replace $P$ by $V$ or $W$ as needed):
+% \begin{equation}
+%   \label{schema2}
+%   \actsymb[\fbox{\scriptsize I}\!\;][\fbox{\scriptsize II}\!\;]%
+%      {\framebox[5ex]{$P$}}{}[\,\fbox{\scriptsize IV}]%
+%   \bigl(\actsymb{\framebox[5ex]{$S$}}{\,\fbox{\scriptsize III}}\bigr)%
+% \end{equation}
+%
+% Perhaps the most commonly used auxiliary symbol not readily
+% available in {\LaTeX} is the ``angle'' denoting a duration $n$, as
+% in $\angln$. Package \pkg{actuarialangle} \citep{actuarialangle}
+% provides commands to create this symbol, as well as an overhead
+% angle bracket\footnote{Starting with version 2.0 dated 2017/04/10.}
+% (or ``roof'') used to emphasize joint status when ambiguity is
+% possible: $\group{xy}$. This package is imported at load time by
+% \pkg{actuarialsymbol}.
+%
+% Package \pkg{actuarialsymbol} provides a generic command to position
+% all subscripts and superscripts easily and consistently around a
+% principal symbol, a command to create two-letter symbols and two
+% commands to position precedence numbers above and below statuses.
+% Since entering actuarial symbols can get quite involved, the package
+% also defines a number of shortcuts to create the most common
+% actuarial functions of financial mathematics and life contingencies.
+%
+% \section{For the impatient}
+% \label{sec:actuarialsymbol:quickstart}
+%
+% The hurried reader may jump to \autoref{sec:shortcuts} for the
+% shortcut macros defined by the package, and to
+% \autoref{sec:comprehensive} for a comprehensive list of symbols of
+% life contingencies along with the {\LaTeX} code to compose them with
+% \pkg{actuarialsymbol} loaded. That said, in our highly biased view,
+% it remains worth reading along the fine documentation below.
+%
+% \section{Package features}
+% \label{sec:features}
+%
+% This section describes the generic commands provided by the package
+% to compose actuarial symbols. On a daily basis, one should use the
+% shortcuts of \autoref{sec:shortcuts} to ease entry of symbols.
+%
+% \subsection{Actuarial symbol}
+% \label{sec:features:actsymb}
+%
+% \begin{DescribeMacro}{\actsymb}
+%   The generic command \cmd{\actsymb} typesets a principal symbol with
+%   surrounding subscripts and superscripts. Its syntax is somewhat
+%   unusual for {\LaTeX}, but it serves well the natural order of the
+%   building blocks of a symbol and their relative prevalence:
+%   \begin{quote}
+%     \cmd{\actsymb}\oarg{ll}\oarg{ul}\marg{symbol}\marg{lr}\oarg{ur}
+%   \end{quote}
+%   Above, \meta{ll} identifies the auxiliary symbol in the lower left
+%   subscript position \fbox{\small I} (following the notation in the
+%   schematic representation \eqref{schema1}); \meta{ul} is the upper
+%   left superscript \fbox{\small II}; \meta{symbol} is the principal
+%   symbol $S$; \meta{lr} is the lower right subscript \fbox{\small
+%   III}; \meta{ur} is the upper right superscript $\fbox{\small IV}$.
+%   The principal symbol and the right subscript are required, the
+%   other arguments are optional.
+%   \begin{demo}
+%     \begin{texample}
+%       |\actsymb{A}{x}|
+%       \producing
+%       $\actsymb{A}{x}$
+%     \end{texample}
+%     \begin{texample}
+%       |\actsymb[n]{A}{x}|
+%       \producing
+%       $\actsymb[n]{A}{x}$
+%     \end{texample}
+%     \begin{texample}
+%       |\actsymb[n][2]{A}{x}|
+%       \producing
+%       $\actsymb[n][2]{A}{x}$
+%     \end{texample}
+%     \begin{texample}
+%       |\actsymb[n][2]{A}{x}[(m)]|
+%       \producing
+%       $\actsymb[n][2]{A}{x}[(m)]$
+%     \end{texample}
+%   \end{demo}
+%
+%   The command actually admits one more optional argument to compose
+%   symbols for premiums, reserves and paid-up insurance. The extended
+%   command
+%   \begin{quote}
+%     \cmd{\actsymb}\oarg{ll}\oarg{ul}\oarg{principle}\marg{symbol}\marg{lr}\oarg{ur}
+%   \end{quote}
+%   puts symbol \meta{principle} outside the parentheses in the
+%   schematic representation \eqref{schema2}.
+%   \begin{demo}
+%     \begin{texample}[0.7]
+%       |\actsymb[][][P]{\bar{A}}{x:\angln}|
+%       \producing
+%       $\actsymb[][][P]{\bar{A}}{x:\angln}$
+%     \end{texample}
+%     \begin{texample}[0.7]
+%       |\actsymb[k][][V]{\bar{A}}{x}[\{1\}]|
+%       \producing
+%       $\actsymb[k][][V]{\bar{A}}{x}[\{1\}]$
+%     \end{texample}
+%     \begin{texample}[0.7]
+%       |\actsymb[k][][\bar{W}]{\bar{A}}{x}|
+%       \producing
+%       $\actsymb[k][][\bar{W}]{\bar{A}}{x}$
+%     \end{texample}
+%   \end{demo}
+% \end{DescribeMacro}
+%
+% \begin{rem}
+%   {\TeX} adjusts the position of a subscript downward when a
+%   superscript is present:
+%   \begin{displaymath}
+%     A_x \quad A_x^2.
+%   \end{displaymath}
+%   The package maintains this behaviour. Therefore, entering the
+%   symbols above using the standard operators |^| and |_| or with
+%   \cmd{\actsymb} yields the same result.
+%   \begin{demo}
+%     \begin{texample}[0.7]
+%       |A_x \quad A_x^2|
+%       \producing
+%       $A_x \quad A_x^2$
+%     \end{texample}
+%     \begin{texample}[0.7]
+%       |\actsymb{A}{x} \quad \actsymb{A}{x}[2]|
+%       \producing
+%       $\actsymb{A}{x} \quad \actsymb{A}{x}[2]$
+%     \end{texample}
+%   \end{demo}
+%   Furthermore, the package also ensures that the left and right
+%   subscripts, when both present, are at the same level, something
+%   popular ad~hoc constructions do not provide.
+%   \begin{demo}
+%     \begin{texample}[0.7]
+%       |{}_tA_x \quad {}_tA_x^2|
+%       \producing
+%       ${}_tA_x \quad {}_tA_x^2$
+%     \end{texample}
+%     \begin{texample}[0.7]
+%       |\actsymb[t]{A}{x} \quad \actsymb[t]{A}{x}[2]|
+%       \producing
+%       $\actsymb[t]{A}{x} \quad \actsymb[t]{A}{x}[2]$
+%     \end{texample}
+%   \end{demo}
+%   In symbols for premiums, reserves and paid-up insurance,
+%   subscripts and superscripts are aligned only around the principle
+%   symbol. Authors who would prefer a uniform subscript position
+%   \emph{throughout their document} should load package
+%   \pkg{subdepth} \citep{subdepth}.
+% \end{rem}
+%
+% \subsection{Two-letter principal symbols}
+% \label{sec:features:twoletsymb}
+%
+% \begin{DescribeMacro}{\twoletsymb}
+%   Entering two-letter principal symbols like $\DA$ as |$(DA)$| results in
+%   letters that are too distant from one another: $(DA)$. To unify
+%   presentation, the package provides the command
+%   \begin{quote}
+%     \cmd{\twoletsymb}\oarg{length}\marg{symbol\_1}\marg{symbol\_2}
+%   \end{quote}
+%   to group \meta{symbol\_1} and \meta{symbol\_2} between parentheses
+%   with kerning\footnote{Spacing adjustment between the characters}
+%   reduced by length \cmd{\twoletkern} (see below). One can also
+%   reduce spacing by \meta{length} for a specific symbol.
+%   \begin{demo}
+%     \begin{texample}
+%       |\twoletsymb{\bar{D}}{\bar{A}}|
+%       \producing
+%       $\twoletsymb{\bar{D}}{\bar{A}}$
+%     \end{texample}
+%     \begin{texample}
+%       |\twoletsymb{I}{\ddot{a}}|
+%       \producing
+%       $\twoletsymb{I}{\ddot{a}}$
+%     \end{texample}
+%     \begin{texample}
+%       |\twoletsymb[0.8pt]{I}{\ddot{a}}|
+%       \producing
+%       $\twoletsymb[0.8pt]{I}{\ddot{a}}$
+%     \end{texample}
+%   \end{demo}
+%
+%   We expect authors to use \cmd{\twoletsymb} to define commands, not
+%   directly in equations. The package already defines a number of
+%   shortcuts for the main two-letter actuarial symbols; see
+%   \autoref{sec:shortcuts}.
+% \end{DescribeMacro}
+%
+% \begin{DescribeMacro}{\twoletkern}
+%   The standard kerning between mathematical symbols defined with
+%   \cmd{\twoletsymb} is \emph{reduced} by the length
+%   \cmd{\twoletkern}, by default \the\twoletkern. This value can be
+%   changed as usual using \cmd{\setlength}.
+% \end{DescribeMacro}
+%
+% \subsection{Precedence numbers}
+% \label{sec:features:precedence}
+%
+% \begin{DescribeMacro}{\nthtop}
+% \begin{DescribeMacro}{\nthtop*}
+%   Precedence numbers appear above or below individual statuses in
+%   the right subscript \fbox{\small III} of a symbol. Commands
+%   \begin{quote}
+%     \cmd{\nthtop}\oarg{length}\marg{number}\marg{status} \\
+%     \cmd{\nthtop*}\oarg{length}\marg{number}\marg{status}
+%   \end{quote}
+%   put a precedence \meta{number} above a \meta{status}, smashed so
+%   that the apparent height of the status is its normal height. This is
+%   normally used in the right subscript \fbox{\small III} of a symbol. With
+%   \cmd{\nthtop}, the spacing between the precedence number and the
+%   status is a constant \cmd{\nthtopsep} (see below). This can result
+%   in precedence numbers placed at different heights if one status
+%   contains an horizontal rule.
+%   \begin{demo}
+%     \begin{texample}[0.85]
+%       |\actsymb{A}{\nthtop{1}{x}:\angln}|
+%       \producing
+%       \rule{0pt}{12pt}$\actsymb{A}{\nthtop{1}{x}:\angln}$
+%     \end{texample}
+%     \begin{texample}[0.85]
+%       |\actsymb{A}{x:\nthtop{1}{\angln}}|
+%       \producing
+%       \rule{0pt}{12pt}$\actsymb{A}{x:\nthtop{1}{\angln}}$
+%     \end{texample}
+%     \begin{texample}[0.85]
+%       |\actsymb{A}{\nthtop{1}{x}y:\nthtop{2}{\angln}}|
+%       \producing
+%       \rule{0pt}{12pt}$\actsymb{A}{\nthtop{1}{x}y:\nthtop{2}{\angln}}$
+%     \end{texample}
+%   \end{demo}
+%   Conversely, \cmd{\nthtop*} always leaves enough space
+%   \cmd{\nthtopskip} for intervening horizontal rules, resulting
+%   in vertically aligned precedence numbers.
+%   \begin{demo}
+%     \begin{texample}[0.85]
+%       |\actsymb{A}{\nthtop*{1}{x}:\angln}|
+%       \producing
+%       \rule{0pt}{12pt}$\actsymb{A}{\nthtop*{1}{x}:\angln}$
+%     \end{texample}
+%     \begin{texample}[0.85]
+%       |\actsymb{A}{x:\nthtop*{1}{\angln}}|
+%       \producing
+%       \rule{0pt}{12pt}$\actsymb{A}{x:\nthtop*{1}{\angln}}$
+%     \end{texample}
+%     \begin{texample}[0.85]
+%       |\actsymb{A}{\nthtop*{1}{x}y:\nthtop*{2}{\angln}}|
+%       \producing

+% \section{Shortcuts}
+% \label{sec:shortcuts}
+%
+% Composing actuarial symbols from scratch using \cmd{\actsymb} can
+% easily get quite involved. For this reason, the package defines a
+% large number of shortcut macros to ease entry of the most common
+% symbols. We encourage authors to define their own shortcuts for
+% cases we did not consider. The package provides powerful facilities
+% to define shortcuts.
+%
+% \subsection{Basic symbols of life tables, insurance and annuities}
+% \label{sec:shortcuts:principal}
+%
+% \autoref{tab:principal} lists shortcuts to compose complete symbols
+% of life tables and benefits of insurance and annuities. For space
+% considerations only the mandatory arguments are given, but it should
+% be noted that all commands of \autoref*{tab:principal} accept the
+% optional arguments \meta{ll}, \meta{ul} and \meta{ur} of
+% \cmd{\actsymb}.

+% variant).

+%   Command |\@actinssc| automatically provides the two shortcuts for
+%   insurance benefits, command |\@actannsc| provides the three
+%   shortcuts for annuity benefits and command |\@actothersc|
+%   provides a single shortcut for \meta{symbol}.
+%
+%   For example, the package defines the shortcut \cmd{\px} with the

+% \subsection{Symbols for premiums, reserves and paid-up insurance}
+% \label{sec:shortcuts:premres}
+%
+% Symbols for premiums, reserves and paid-up insurance come in two
+% main variants: without an explicit benefit between parentheses for
+% insurances payable at the end of the year of death, and with the
+% type of benefit specified for all other insurances and annuities.
+%
+% \autoref{tab:premres} lists two sets of shortcuts to compose symbols
+% for premiums, reserves and paid-up insurance. Shortcuts from the
+% first set take in mandatory argument the content of the \meta{lr}
+% subscript of actuarial symbols. Those from the second set require a
+% complete benefit symbol in argument. One may use the shortcuts of
+% \autoref{tab:principal} to this effect. Again, only the mandatory
+% arguments are given in the table, but all commands accept the

+% \section{Package options}
+% \label{sec:options}
+%
+% The package offers two options to control the placement of
+% precedence numbers:
+% \begin{description}
+% \item[\mdseries\ttfamily alignpreced] always align top and bottom
+%   precedence numbers; makes \cmd{\nthtop} and \cmd{\nthbottom}
+%   equivalent to \cmd{\nthtop*} and \cmd{\nthbottom*},
+%   respectively;
+% \item[\mdseries\ttfamily compactpreced] always put precedence
+%   numbers close to the corresponding status; makes \cmd{\nthtop*}
+%   and \cmd{\nthbottom*} equivalent to \cmd{\nthtop} and
+%   \cmd{\nthbottom}, respectively.
+% \end{description}
+% Option |alignpreced| can be useful to simplify entry of uniformly
+% positioned precedence numbers. On the other hand, option
+% |compactpreced| is merely included as a complement to |alignpreced|.
+% We do not recommended --- nor see a reason --- to use it as it
+% basically renders inoperative commands \cmd{\nthtop*} and
+% \cmd{\nthbottom*}.

+% \section{Comprehensive life contingencies symbol list}
+% \label{sec:comprehensive}
+%
+% This appendix was inspired by \citet{Trivedi:lifecon:2004}. The
+% title is a nod to the immensely useful \emph{Comprehensive
+% {\LaTeX} Symbol List} of \citet{comprehensive}.
+%
+% The table below contains all the life contingencies symbols listed
+% in Appendix~3 of \citet{Bowers:2e:1997} along with the code to
+% compose them with \pkg{actuarialsymbol} (and therefore
+% \pkg{actuarialangle}) loaded. Often times there are various ways to
+% obtain a symbol; we tried to always present the most compact and
+% legible option. Not all symbols require features of
+% \pkg{actuarialsymbol}.
+%
+% Calligraphic letters are typeset using \cmd{\mathcal}. The specific
+% versions of $\mathcal{L}$ and $\mathcal{D}$ that appear in this
+% table require package \pkg{rsfso} \citep{rsfso}, which is \emph{not}
+% loaded by \pkg{actuarialsymbol}. Standard versions of the
+% calligraphic letters are $\text{\usefont{OMS}{zplm}{m}{n} L}$ and
+% $\text{\usefont{OMS}{zplm}{m}{n} D}$. See Table~299 of
+% \citet{comprehensive} for other options.

+% \section{Implementation}
+% \label{sec:implementation}
+%
+% This appendix contains the annotated source code of the package.
+% Most readers can stop reading here.

+%
+% \subsection{Required packages}
+% \label{sec:implementation:packages}
+%
+% \begin{macro}{RequirePackage}
+%   The package depends on packages \pkg{amsmath} \citep{amsmath} and
+%   \pkg{actuarialangle} \citep{actuarialangle}.
+%    \begin{macrocode}
+\RequirePackage{amsmath}
+\RequirePackage{actuarialangle}
+%    \end{macrocode}
+% \end{macro}
+%
+% \subsection{Package options}
+% \label{sec:implementation:options}
+%
+% \begin{macro}{\ifacts@alignpreced}
+% \begin{macro}{\ifacts@acompactpreced}
+%   We define two flags to keep track of the type of alignment for
+%   precedence numbers. Both are false by default.
+%    \begin{macrocode}
+\newif\ifacts@alignpreced   \acts@alignprecedfalse
+\newif\ifacts@compactpreced \acts@compactprecedfalse
+%    \end{macrocode}
+% \end{macro}
+% \end{macro}
+% \begin{macro}{\DeclareOption}
+%   Declaration of the package options and processing.
+%    \begin{macrocode}
+\DeclareOption{alignpreced}{\acts@alignprecedtrue}
+\DeclareOption{compactpreced}{\acts@compactprecedtrue}
+\ProcessOptions
+%    \end{macrocode}
+% \end{macro}
+%
+% \subsection{Actuarial symbol}
+% \label{sec:implementation:actsymb}
+%
+% We face three main challenges when trying to compose actuarial
+% symbols: position a subscript and a superscipt to the left of a main
+% symbol; ensure that the left and right subscripts and superscripts
+% are vertically aligned; maintain consistency with the placement of
+% subscripts and superscripts elsewhere in the document.
+%
+% \subsubsection{User level and parsing commands}
+% \label{sec:implementation:actsymb:user}
+%
+% \begin{macro}{actsymb}
+%   We first define the user level command.
+%    \begin{macrocode}
+\DeclareRobustCommand{\actsymb}{\acts@actsymb}
+%    \end{macrocode}
+% \end{macro}
+% \begin{macro}{\acts@actsymb}
+% \begin{macro}{\acts@@actsymb}
+% \begin{macro}{\acts@@@actsymb}
+% \begin{macro}{\acts@@@@actsymb}
+%   With its unusual syntax, \cmd{\actsymb} requires four parsing
+%   macros to pass the arguments to the actual workhorse
+%   \cmd{\@actsymbol}.
+%    \begin{macrocode}
+\newcommand\acts@actsymb{%
+  \@ifnextchar[{\acts@@actsymb}%
+               {\acts@@actsymb[]}}

+% \subsubsection{Symbol construction}
+% \label{sec:implementation:actsymb:workhorse}
+%
+% \begin{macro}{\@actsymbol}
+%   We now define the workhorse to compose an actuarial symbol
+%   allowing for auxiliary symbols on all four corners around a
+%   principal symbol. The macro \cmd{\@actsymbol} has the following
+%   six arguments, using the notation from of the schematics
+%   representations \eqref{schema1} and \eqref{schema2}:
+%   \begin{enumerate}[nosep]
+%   \item lower left subscript \fbox{\small I}; may be empty;
+%   \item upper left superscript \fbox{\small II}; may be empty;
+%   \item principle symbol $P$; when empty a standard symbol is
+%     typeset;
+%   \item principal symbol $S$; assumed present;
+%   \item lower right subscript \fbox{\small III}; assumed present;
+%   \item upper right superscript \fbox{\small IV}; may be empty.
+%   \end{enumerate}
+%   The definition below is heavily inspired by the code of
+%   \cmd{\prescript} from package \pkg{mathtools} \citep{mathtools}
+%   which, as reported by the author, is itself based on a posting to
+%   |comp.text.tex| by Michael J.~Downes. Some of the comments below
+%   are still his.
+%    \begin{macrocode}
+\def\@actsymbol[#1][#2][#3]#4#5[#6]{
+%    \end{macrocode}
+%   We put the principle symbol and all subscripts and superscript into
+%   horizontal boxes using \cmd{\@mathmeasure} of package \pkg{amsmath}.
+%    \begin{macrocode}
+  \@mathmeasure\z@\displaystyle{#3}
+  \@mathmeasure\@ne\scriptstyle{#1}
+  \@mathmeasure\tw@\scriptstyle{#2}
+  \@mathmeasure\thr@@\scriptstyle{#5}
+  \@mathmeasure4\scriptstyle{#6}
+%    \end{macrocode}
+%   Do not let a preceding mathord symbol approach without any
+%   intervening space.
+%    \begin{macrocode}
+  \mathord{}
+%    \end{macrocode}
+%   Right align the left subscript and superscript (if there is a
+%   superscript) by adjusting the width of their horizontal boxes.
+%    \begin{macrocode}
+  \ifdim \wd\tw@>\z@ \ifdim \wd\tw@>\wd\@ne
+    \setbox\@ne\hbox to\wd\tw@{\hfil\unhbox\@ne}
+  \else
+    \setbox\tw@\hbox to\wd\@ne{\hfil\unhbox\tw@}
+  \fi\fi
+%    \end{macrocode}
+%   Bottom align the left and right subscripts by making their heights
+%   equal.
+%    \begin{macrocode}
+  \ifdim \ht\@ne>\ht\thr@@
+    \ht\thr@@=\ht\@ne
+  \else
+    \ht\@ne=\ht\thr@@
+  \fi
+%    \end{macrocode}
+%   Actual symbol construction. First the case where there is at least
+%   one superscript (the nested conditionals emulate an OR condition).
+%    \begin{macrocode}
+  \ifnum\ifdim \wd\tw@>\z@ 1\else\ifdim \wd4>\z@ 1\else 0\fi\fi
+    =1
+%    \end{macrocode}
+%   To ensure equal spacing with the subscripts on both sides of the
+%   principal symbol, make the depths of the left and right
+%   supercripts equal.
+%    \begin{macrocode}
+    \ifdim \dp\tw@>\dp4 \dp4=\dp\tw@\else \dp\tw@=\dp4\fi
+%    \end{macrocode}
+%   Typesetting of the left subscript and superscript. Use
+%   \cmd{\mathopen} to suppress space between those and the principal
+%   symbol even when the latter is not of type ord.
+%    \begin{macrocode}
+    \mathopen{\vphantom{#4}^{\box\tw@}\sb{\box\@ne}}%
+%    \end{macrocode}
+%   Typesetting of the principal symbol and the right subscript and
+%   superscript. The principal symbol is either a principal symbol alone
+%   or a principle symbol and a benefit symbol between parentheses. In
+%   the latter case, we make sure to align the subscripts and
+%   superscripts only around de principle symbol.
+%    \begin{macrocode}
+    \ifdim\wd\z@=\z@
+      #4^{\box4}\sb{\box\thr@@}%
+    \else
+      #3^{\box4}\sb{\vphantom{\copy\thr@@}}(#4\sb{\box\thr@@})%
+    \fi
+  \else
+%    \end{macrocode}
+%   Same ideas as above in the simpler case without superscripts. That
+%   way, {\TeX}'s default placement of subscripts and superscripts is
+%   maintained.
+%    \begin{macrocode}
+    \mathopen{\vphantom{#4}\sb{\box\@ne}}%
+    \ifdim\wd\z@=\z@
+      #4\sb{\box\thr@@}%
+    \else
+      #3(#4\sb{\box\thr@@})%
+    \fi
+  \fi
+}
+%    \end{macrocode}
+% \end{macro}
+%
+% \subsubsection{Shortcuts for basic symbols of life tables, insurance and annuities}
+% \label{sec:implementation:actsymb:principalsc}
+%
+% \begin{macro}{\@actinssc}
+% \begin{macro}{\@actannsc}
+% \begin{macro}{\@actothersc}
+%   We first define the internal macros and parsing macros used to
+%   define shortcuts for insurance benefits (\cmd{\@actinssc}),
+%   annuity benefits (\cmd{\@actannsc}) and simple symbols
+%   (\cmd{\@actothersc}).
+%    \begin{macrocode}
+\newcommand\@actinssc[1]{%

+          {\acts@actsc{#1}}}
+\newcommand\@actannsc[1]{%
+  \@ifstar{\@ifstar{\acts@actsc{\ddot{#1}}}%
+                   {\acts@actsc{\bar{#1}}}}
+          {\acts@actsc{#1}}}
+\newcommand\acts@actsc[1]{%
+  \@ifnextchar[{\acts@@actsc{#1}}%

+\newcommand\acts@@actsc{}
+\def\acts@@actsc#1[#2]{%
+  \@ifnextchar[{\acts@@@actsc{#1}[#2]}%
+               {\acts@@@actsc{#1}[#2][]}}
+\newcommand\acts@@@actsc{}
+\def\acts@@@actsc#1[#2][#3]#4{%
+  \@ifnextchar[{\@actsymbol[#2][#3][]{#1}{#4}}%
+               {\@actsymbol[#2][#3][]{#1}{#4}[]}}
+%    \end{macrocode}
+% \end{macro}
+% \end{macro}
+% \end{macro}
+% \begin{macro}{\DeclareRobustCommand}
+%   We can now define all the shortcuts of \autoref{tab:principal}.
+%    \begin{macrocode}
+\DeclareRobustCommand{\lx}{\@actothersc {\ell}}
+\DeclareRobustCommand{\Lx}{\@actothersc {\mathcal{L}}}
+\DeclareRobustCommand{\dx}{\@actothersc d}
+\DeclareRobustCommand{\Dx}{\@actothersc{\mathcal{D}}}
+\DeclareRobustCommand{\px}{\@actothersc p}
+\DeclareRobustCommand{\qx}{\@actothersc q}
+\DeclareRobustCommand{\Ax}{\@actinssc A}
+\DeclareRobustCommand{\Ex}{\@actinssc E}
+\DeclareRobustCommand{\ax}{\@actannsc a}
+\DeclareRobustCommand{\sx}{\@actannsc s}
+\DeclareRobustCommand{\aringx}{\@actothersc{\mathring{a}}}
+\DeclareRobustCommand{\eringx}{\@actothersc{\mathring{e}}}
+%    \end{macrocode}
+% \end{macro}
+%
+% \subsubsection{Shortcuts for premiums, reserves and paid-up insurance}
+% \label{sec:implementation:actsymb:premressc}
+%
+% \begin{macro}{\@actpremres}
+%   Not unlike above, we first define the internal and parsing macros
+%   used to create shortcut for premiums, reserves and paid-up insurance
+%   symbols.
+%    \begin{macrocode}
+\newcommand\@actpremres[1]{%
+  \@ifstar{\acts@actpremres{\bar{#1}}}%
+          {\acts@actpremres{#1}}}
+\newcommand\acts@actpremres[1]{%
+  \@ifnextchar[{\acts@@actpremres{#1}}%
+               {\acts@@actpremres{#1}[]}}
+\newcommand\acts@@actpremres{}
+\def\acts@@actpremres#1[#2]{%
+  \@ifnextchar[{\acts@@@actpremres{#1}[#2]}%
+               {\acts@@@actpremres{#1}[#2][]}}
+\newcommand\acts@@@actpremres{}
+\def\acts@@@actpremres#1[#2][#3]#4{%
+  \@ifnextchar[{\@actsymbol[#2][#3][#1]{{#4}}{}}%
+               {\@actsymbol[#2][#3][#1]{{#4}}{}[]}}
+%    \end{macrocode}
+% \end{macro}
+% \begin{macro}{\DeclareRobustCommand}
+%   Then we can define the shortcuts of \autoref{tab:premres}.
+%    \begin{macrocode}
+\DeclareRobustCommand{\Px}{\@actothersc P}
+\DeclareRobustCommand{\Vx}{\@actothersc V}
+\DeclareRobustCommand{\Wx}{\@actothersc W}
+\DeclareRobustCommand{\premium}{\@actpremres P}
+\DeclareRobustCommand{\reserve}{\@actpremres V}
+\DeclareRobustCommand{\paidup}{\@actpremres W}
+%    \end{macrocode}
+% \end{macro}
+%
+% \subsubsection{Shortcuts for auxiliary symbols}
+% \label{sec:implementation:actsymb:auxsc}
+%
+% \begin{macro}{\DeclareRobustCommand}
+%   Here we define the shortcuts for common auxiliary symbols listed in
+%   \autoref{tab:aux}. Command \cmd{\joint} is simply defined as an
+%   alias of \cmd{\overline}.
+%    \begin{macrocode}
+\DeclareRobustCommand{\term}[2]{\itop{#1}:\angl{#2}}
+\DeclareRobustCommand{\termxn}{{\itop{x}:\angln}}
+\DeclareRobustCommand{\pureendow}[2]{#1:\itop{\angl{#2}}}
+\DeclareRobustCommand{\pureendowxn}{{x:\itop{\angln}}}
+\DeclareRobustCommand{\endow}[2]{#1:\angl{#2}}
+\DeclareRobustCommand{\endowxn}{{x:\angln}}
+\let\joint\overline
+%    \end{macrocode}
+% \end{macro}
+%
+% \subsection{Two-letter symbols}
+% \label{sec:implementation:twoletsymb}
+%
+% \begin{macro}{\twoletkern}
+% \begin{macro}{\twoletsymb}
+%   The definition of the user level command \cmd{\twoletsymb} is
+%   pretty straighforward.
+%    \begin{macrocode}
+\newlength{\twoletkern}
+\setlength{\twoletkern}{1.2pt}
+\DeclareRobustCommand{\twoletsymb}[3][\twoletkern]{(#2\kern-#1#3)}
+%    \end{macrocode}
+% \end{macro}
+% \end{macro}
+% \begin{macro}{\@twoletinssc}
+% \begin{macro}{\@twoletannsc}
+%   Following the same lines as above, we define two internal macros
+%   to create shortcuts for two-letter insurance and annuity benefit
+%   symbols.
+%    \begin{macrocode}
+\newcommand\@twoletinssc[3][\twoletkern]{%
+  \@ifstar{\twoletsymb[#1]{#2}{\bar{#3}}}%
+          {\twoletsymb[#1]{#2}{#3}}}
+\newcommand\@twoletannsc[3][\twoletkern]{%
+  \@ifstar{\@ifstar{\twoletsymb[#1]{#2}{\ddot{#3}}}%
+                   {\twoletsymb[#1]{#2}{\bar{#3}}}}%
+          {\twoletsymb[#1]{#2}{#3}}}
+%    \end{macrocode}
+% \end{macro}
+% \end{macro}
+% \begin{macro}{\newcommand}
+%   Follow the shortcuts of \autoref{tab:twoletsymb}. Note that we
+%   used a smaller negative kerning adjustment for symbols annuity
+%   symbols.
+%    \begin{macrocode}
+\newcommand{\IA}{\@twoletinssc IA}
+\newcommand{\IbA}{\@twoletinssc{\bar{I}}A}
+\newcommand{\ImA}{\@twoletinssc{I^{(m)}}A}
+\newcommand{\DA}{\@twoletinssc DA}
+\newcommand{\DbA}{\@twoletinssc{\bar{D}}A}
+\newcommand{\DmA}{\@twoletinssc{D^{(m)}}A}
+\newcommand{\Ia}{\@twoletannsc[0.5\twoletkern]Ia}
+\newcommand{\Is}{\@twoletannsc[0.5\twoletkern]Is}
+\newcommand{\Da}{\@twoletannsc[0.5\twoletkern]Da}
+\newcommand{\Ds}{\@twoletannsc[0.5\twoletkern]Ds}
+%    \end{macrocode}
+% \end{macro}
+%
+% \subsection{Precedence numbers}
+% \label{sec:implementation:preced}
+%
+% The system of precedence numbers builds on a backbone that used to
+% be part of package \pkg{actuarialangle}. The author of the code is
+% unknown. Some of the comments on \cmd{\@precendence}, below, are his
+% or hers.
+%
+% \subsubsection{User level lengths and commands}
+% \label{sec:implementation:preced:user}
+%
+% \begin{macro}{\nthtopsep}
+% \begin{macro}{\nthtopskip}
+% \begin{macro}{\nthbottomsep}
+% \begin{macro}{\nthbottomskip}
+%   Let us start by defining the lengths needed to position the
+%   precedence numbers above or below the statuses.
+%    \begin{macrocode}
+\newlength{\nthtopsep}
+\setlength{\nthtopsep}{2\p@}
+\newlength{\nthtopskip}
+\setlength{\nthtopskip}{7\p@}
+\newlength{\nthbottomsep}
+\setlength{\nthbottomsep}{2\p@}
+\newlength{\nthbottomskip}
+\setlength{\nthbottomskip}{9\p@}
+%    \end{macrocode}
+% \end{macro}
+% \end{macro}
+% \end{macro}
+% \end{macro}
+% \begin{macro}{\nthtop}
+% \begin{macro}{\nthbottom}
+%   Next up are the two user level commands and the internal commands
+%   that call the workhorse \cmd{\@precedence}.
+%    \begin{macrocode}
+\DeclareRobustCommand{\nthtop}{\@ifstar\@varnthtop\@nthtop}
+\DeclareRobustCommand{\nthbottom}{\@ifstar\@varnthbottom\@nthbottom}
+\newcommand{\@nthtop}[3][\nthtopsep]{%
+  \mathpalette{\@precedence t\z@{#1}{#2}}{#3}}
+\newcommand{\@varnthtop}[3][\nthtopskip]{%
+  \mathpalette{\@precedence t{#1}\z@{#2}}{#3}}
+\newcommand{\@nthbottom}[3][\nthbottomsep]{%
+  \mathpalette{\@precedence b\z@{#1}{#2}}{#3}}
+\newcommand{\@varnthbottom}[3][\nthbottomskip]{%
+  \mathpalette{\@precedence b{#1}\z@{#2}}{#3}}
+%    \end{macrocode}
+% \end{macro}
+% \end{macro}
+%
+% \begin{macro}{\@nthtop}
+% \begin{macro}{\@nthbottom}
+%   With the internal commands defined we can now process the package
+%   options. Option |alignpreced| makes the internal macros
+%   \cmd{\@nthtop} and \cmd{\@nthbottom} equivalent to
+%   \cmd{\@varnthtop} and \cmd{\@varnthbottom}, respectively.
+%    \begin{macrocode}
+\ifacts@alignpreced
+  \let\@nthtop\@varnthtop
+  \let\@nthbottom\@varnthbottom
+\fi
+%    \end{macrocode}
+% \end{macro}
+% \end{macro}
+% \begin{macro}{\@varnthtop}
+% \begin{macro}{\@varnthbottom}
+%   Option |compactpreced| does the opposite.
+%    \begin{macrocode}
+\ifacts@compactpreced
+  \let\@varnthtop\nthtop
+  \let\@varnthbottom\nthbottom
+\fi
+%    \end{macrocode}
+% \end{macro}
+% \end{macro}
+%
+% \subsubsection{Number and status positioning}
+% \label{sec:implementation:preced:workhorse}
+%
+% \begin{macro}{\@precedence}
+%   We now define the workhorse to position precedence numbers above
+%   or below statuses, smashed so that the height of the auxiliary
+%   symbol containing the call remains unaffected. The macro
+%   \cmd{\@precedence} has the following six arguments:
+%   \begin{enumerate}[nosep]
+%   \item |t| for top or |b| for bottom;
+%   \item baseline skip between the top and bottom symbols;
+%   \item spacing between the top and bottom symbols;
+%   \item first argument from the user;
+%   \item one of math style selecting commands (\cmd{\displaystyle},
+%     \cmd{\textstyle}, \cmd{\scriptstyle}, \cmd{\scriptscriptstyle})
+%     from \cmd{\mathpalette};
+%   \item second argument given by the user.
+%   \end{enumerate}
+%   This peculiar ordering of the arguments is done to work around the
+%   restriction of \cmd{\mathpalette} that it only reads two
+%   arguments.
+%    \begin{macrocode}
+\def\@precedence#1#2#3#4#5#6{%
+  \setbox\tw@\hbox{$\m@th#5#4$}%
+  \setbox\z@\hbox{$\m@th#5#6$}
+  \dimen@\wd\z@
+  \vbox to\ht\z@{%
+    \baselineskip=#2
+    \lineskip=#3
+    \lineskiplimit\lineskip
+    \if b#1\relax\box\z@\else\vss\fi
+    \hbox to\dimen@{\hss\unhbox\tw@\hss}%
+    \if t#1\relax\box\z@\else\vss\fi
+  }
+}
+%    \end{macrocode}
+% \end{macro}
+%
+% \subsubsection{Shortcuts and aliases}
+% \label{sec:implementation:preced:shortcuts}
+%
+% \begin{macro}{\DeclareRobustCommand}
+%   We finish off by defining the shortcuts and aliases of
+%   \autoref{tab:preced}.
+%    \begin{macrocode}
+\DeclareRobustCommand{\firsttop}{%
+  \@ifstar{\@varnthtop{1}}{\@nthtop{1}}}
