NPM version Build Status Coverage Status

US infant mortality data, by race, from 1915 to 2013, as provided by the Center for Disease Control and Prevention's National Center for Health Statistics.

Installation

npm install @stdlib/datasets-cdc-nchs-us-infant-mortality-bw-1915-2013

Usage

var dataset = require( '@stdlib/datasets-cdc-nchs-us-infant-mortality-bw-1915-2013' );

dataset()

Returns US infant mortality data, by race, from 1915 to 2013, as provided by the Center for Disease Control and Prevention's National Center for Health Statistics.

var data = dataset();
// returns { 'black': [...], 'white': [...] }

Notes

  • All birth data by race before 1980 are based on race of the child. Starting in 1980, birth data by race are based on race of the mother. Birth data are used to calculate infant mortality rate.

Examples

var dataset = require( '@stdlib/datasets-cdc-nchs-us-infant-mortality-bw-1915-2013' );

// Retrieve the data:
var data = dataset();
var b = data.black;
var w = data.white;

// Compute the relative infant mortality rate for blacks versus whites...
var r;
var i;
for ( i = 0; i < b.length; i++ ) {
    r = b[ i ] / w[ i ];
    console.log( '%d', r.toFixed( 3 ) );
}
