Precision
The headline is stored to 11 decimals, as published.
Rounded by this site
Never. Tables on screen may show fewer decimals; the files never do.
Changed by this site
Reshaped into one row per country: regional and income-group totals are left out, only the columns listed are kept, each row gets its ISO 3166 code, and some country names are brought to one spelling. No value is recalculated, rescaled or rounded.
Pulled from the World Bank’s indicator API (NY.GNP.PCAP.PP.KD). 1990–1993 are not imported: fewer than 80 countries reported.
