Wolfram Alpha on Singapore
Doing a quick search for Singapore on Wolfram Alpha, the internet’s hottest new search engine, brings up some interesting (accurate?) information on Singapore.
- Our island is shaped somewhat weirdly
- Our population grows 1.24% yearly
- Chinese languages is interestingly split up into “Min Nan”, “Yue” and “Mandarin”. Where did they get this info from?
- The population of our “largest city” called “Singapore” is 3,547,809!
- Our “local currency conversion” is an exercise in simple mathematics ($1 = $1)
- We’re rather rich for a small country, but our Gini index is quite embarrassing
Update: Looks like Wolfram Alpha regenerates their date very often and invalidated the images we’ve originally embedded, so they’re removed from this post. Do a search and see the surprising results for yourself!
