R6 Class Representing the Stratification Settings of a IncidenceDesign

The StrataSettings class, encapsulating the age, gender and start-year + age breaks settings.

Details

This class is used to specify the stratification settings for an analysis. The settings can indicate the statistics should be grouped by the age, gender, or start year, and any combination of those selections.

Example: age = T and gender = T will produce statisics by age, by gender, and by age and gender.

Note, when serializing with a library such as jsonlite, first call toList() on the R6 class before calling jsonlite::toJSON().
