Hi,
I was trying to figure out how I could use this code on a project of mine. I think I figured out most of it but couldn't find where in the code you define T_max (the maximum age person can attain). Is it the num_Category parameter? This seems to be closest to the interpretation of T_max in the paper but I'm not sure. The assumption then is that adding 20% to the max observed age of the oldest person in the dataset is the maximum age that any future person can attain? In the paper you say that you set T_max to 1200 (100 years in months) but I couldn't find this anywhere in the code.
thanks in advance.
