04Caveats
Read before you use
What this edition’s numbers are and are not, worked out from the file itself.
One year of the 2026 release
Every year in this series comes from OECD’s 2026 release, recalculated on one method. It can differ from what was first published for 2009.
127 distinct values among 135
Values are stored exactly as published, to 17 decimals. 9 countries share 0.0000. Countries sharing a value share a position too.
Which end is better
Neither end is better. The values describe a shape, not a score.
115 empty cells
An empty cell means the publisher gave no figure. It is never a zero.
Some readings carry a flag
OECD marks readings it considers estimates or provisional. The flags in this file: Estimated value, Low reliability.
