Simulations on the Human Population Simulation Year Based on Markov Chain

This code simulates the global human population from Year 2019 to the saturated year with the Discrete-time Markov Chain (after imposing the maximum number of population), and compares the results calculated with T-Function in Ref[1]. Data from Ref[2] is also shown for comparison reasons.
