Description
Subtract duplicates for assignedUnique, then derive unassigned count and its share of total.
Cross-source records often use different labels, time spans, and support conventions. Exact equality and overlap checks describe the supplied metadata; they do not prove that sources measure the same social or geographic concept.
Subtract duplicates for assignedUnique, then derive unassigned count and its share of total.
When to use this tool
Use World Region Unassigned Share when you need a literal source comparison or coverage diagnostic.
How to use the tool and how it works
- Enter assignedCounts, total, duplicateAssignments. Use the units and conventions below.
- Run the tool. Correct any format, range, or cross-field input error before interpreting the output.
- Read assignedUnique, unassigned, unassignedShare. Use the output convention below.
Require positive total, nonnegative assignedCounts, and a compatible duplicateAssignments correction. Subtract duplicates for assignedUnique, then derive unassigned count and its share of total.1
| Input field | Meaning and units | Accepted input |
|---|---|---|
| assignedCounts | Assigned Counts | Required. Array of safe integer; maximum items 256. |
| total | Total | Required. Safe integer; minimum 1. |
| duplicateAssignments | Duplicate Assignments | Required. Safe integer; minimum 0. |
| Output field | Interpretation | Returned shape |
|---|---|---|
| assignedUnique | Assigned Unique | Required. Safe integer. |
| unassigned | Unassigned | Required. Safe integer. |
| unassignedShare | Unassigned Share | Required. Finite number. |

}Limitations and assumptions
- The duplicate correction is supplied and can represent more complex overlaps; actual country/region membership, geographic authority, and source accuracy are not verified.
- Inputs must satisfy both the field types and the cross-field conditions above. Invalid input causes an error; a successful false flag or documented placeholder is a different result.
- Numeric calculations use binary floating point unless exact decimal-integer arithmetic is explicitly stated. No hidden measurement tolerance or decimal rounding is added; nonfinite or out-of-contract results are rejected. Numeric signed-zero results are exported as zero.
Alternative or Complementary methods
Inspect the original source definitions and collection methods. Harmonize conceptual scope and timing before treating matching labels or overlapping records as comparable evidence.
