Thank you very much David. I'm sorry for this fault , hope it has not
confused Frostygoat.
I was clueless of recursive reference and I didn't meet any error when I
test the code. So I wonder if there are some useful tips to prevent making
this kind of faults:)
The revised code is followed.

Thanks very much David. Bert, I've seen the Survival package and it
does not do what I need, which is to fit Gompertz curves to survival
data and compute lifetable statistics for other functions. There is
the SSgompertz package for growth curves, not what I need either.
