Use developmentTriangle to convert the data to a development triangle, which is the standard form for representing claims data.

dT = developmentTriangle(data)
dT = 
  developmentTriangle with properties:

Use the ultimateClaims function to calculate CDFs and the percentage of total claims and return a table with the selected link ratios, CDFs, and percentage of total claims.
