Package description

A collection of datasets, originally for the book Computational Actuarial Science with R edited by Arthur Charpentier. Now, the package contains a large variety of actuarial datasets for students, teachers and researchers.

This package cannot be hosted on CRAN because the installed size is too big: 260.5Mb.

We strongly encourage users to visit the R project website and take a look at the CRAN task view on Actuarial science proposed by Dutang & Goulet (2024).

Topics (MSC 2010)

• actuarial science
• insurance
• risk
