Then survey the laws of mortality from both points of view of stochastic theory and traditional actuaries. There is a thorough discussion and simple visualization of Balducci and uniform distribution of deaths assumptions of mortality rates of fractional ages. Two least square-fit cubic survivorship functions for fitting the Male Table of 1958 CSO are presented. Various complicated exposure formulas for a mortality study are obtained by a simple inspection of the valuation schedule in demography. Life insurance and annuities are first introduced in three different points of view: deterministic, stochastic and dynamic. Then the uniform representation of a general life contingency function and its derivative is defined in such a fashion that deferred, term, endowment, life insurance and life annuity with level or varying benefit and premium can be treated all in one shot.
