\usage{
getPeriodTable(object, Period, ...)

\S4method{getPeriodTable}{mortalityTable}(object, Period, ages = NULL, ...)

}
\arguments{
\item{object}{The life table object (class inherited from mortalityTable)}

\item{Period}{The observation year, for which the death probabilities should
be determined. If missing, the base year of the table is used.}
