Most of the globe actually writes €/$19,99 and 30.000, if we're gonna be nitpicky.
- mkl 10y agoThis doesn't seem to be true. India and China, as well as the USA and seemingly all Commonwealth countries, use "." for decimals. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Decimal_mark https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Decimal_mark https://www.datacamp.com/community/tutorials/decimal-comma-or-decimal-point-a-googlevis-visualization#gs.VtRQFUw https://www.datacamp.com/community/tutorials/decimal-comma-o...
- jorvi 10y agoYour link indicates that I'm right. Scroll down to the 'examples of use page', and you see that adding up the 'SI (French style)' plus the second box below that yields by far the most countries.
- thaumasiotes 10y ago"Most of the globe" does not obviously mean the same thing as "most countries". "Most of the people" would be a much more plausible interpretation than a metric that gives Swaziland equal weight with China. "Most of the area" would also be a plausible interpretation, but "most countries" isn't.
- jorvi 10y agoIts actually the most plausible. If you go for 'most people', the most spoken language isn't English, its Chinese. Yet ask people, and they will happily point towards English. If you go for 'most area' you again run into a problem, because Russia and Canada are totally out of whack with regards to population per square km. 'Most countries' is the happy middle ground.
