[R] R example codes for direct standardization of rates

[Therneau, Terry M., Ph.D.]

The pyears() and survexp() routines in the survival package are designed for these 
calculations.
See the technical report #63 of the Mayo Biostat group for examples

I am looking for R  example codes to compute age-standardized death rates by smoking and 
psychological distress status using person-years of observation created from the National 
Health Interview Survey Linked Mortality Files.  Any help with the example codes or 
references will be appreciated.
