MeanAgeChile(FertHandle,[Epsilon])

\(\newcommand{\MAC}{\mathrm{MAC}}\) \(\newcommand{\TFR}{\mathrm{TFR}}\)

Returns the mean age at childbearing \(\MAC\) for fertility handle FertHandle $$ \MAC= \frac{1}{\TFR}\int_\alpha^\beta a f(a) da $$

where \(\TFR\) is the total fertility rate. The optional parameter Epsilon controls the accuracy of numerical calculation of the integral. If not specified it defaults to 0.000001.
