Package: r-cran-pwt (7.1.1-7build1)

GNU R package for the Penn World Tables (version 5.6 to 7.1)

This package contains the Penn World Tables (PWT), which provide purchasing power parity (PPP) and national income accounts converted to international prices for 189 countries for some or all the years 1950-2010. The data are developed and maintained by scholars at the Center for International Comparisons of Production, Income and Prices (CIC) from the University of Pennsylvania.

Note that more recent versions of the PWT have been created by the University of California, Davis and the University of Groningen, and are available in the r-cran-pwt8 and r-cran-pwt9 packages.
