4. The 2007 Human Development Index (HDI) is a way of measuring development by combining indicators of life expectancy, educational attainment and income into a composite human development index, and ranges from 0 to 1, with 1 representing the highest level of human development. Life expectancy is calculated utilizing a minimum value for life expectancy of 25 years and maximum value of 85. Educational attainment is derived from the adult literacy rate and the combined gross enrolment ratio for primary, secondary, and tertiary schooling, weighted to give adult literacy more significance in the statistic. Income is calculated using a logarithm of the per capita gross domestic product ranging from $100 (PPP) to $40,000 (PPP) to reflect diminishing importance of income with increasing GDP.

5. The 2007 Gender-related Development Index measures achievement in the same basic capabilities as the Human Development Index (HDI), but takes note of inequality in achievement between women and men. The greater the gender disparity in basic capabilities, the lower a country's GDI compared with its HDI. It is, effectively, the HDI corrected for gender disparities.

6. 2007 GINI Index of Income Inequality measures the extent to which the distribution of income (or consumption) among individuals or households within a country deviates from a perfectly equal distribution. A value of 0 represents perfect equality, a value of 100 perfect inequality.
