The Lexis diagram 1 is commonly used to illustrate the usual method for computing death probabilities and other demographic measures. In this diagram, every individual is represented by a life line 2 which begins at birth and ends in the point of death 3. A method for the study of mortality at very advanced ages has been called the method of extinct generations 4, because it uses observed deaths for cohorts which have been completely eliminated by mortality.
