People Calculator (Past)

This is a calculator, specifically designed to calculate the growth of the human race under the conditions that you suggest. Enter your best guess for each of the questions below and the program will calculate how many human beings would be on the earth today if, indeed, human beings had reproduced under that scenario.

How many human beings were on the earth at the earliest beginnings of humans' existence?
How long ago was that? years ago.
Note: This program will assume that 40 percent of women at this starting point had yet to go through their reproductive years.
What has been the average time between generations? years.
How many children has the average couple/woman had over the course of human history? (You can enter a decimal number, such as 4.3.)
What percentage of children have survived, on average, long enough to produce more children?

Would you prefer to calculate the growth of the human race from this point forward?
