Features graphs with evolution and country comparatives. It only covers the 'fields' sections of the downloadable archives.

Usage:

Select one or more items of the three lists (years, categories, countries) and press 'Show Factbook'.

When several years are selected line graphs with the evolution of the selected categories/countries appear.

Selecting several countries a year and different categories leads to bar ranking comparatives.

Nothing selected in a list is the same as selecting everything, select individual items for more concrete queries.

Press back on your device anytime to cancel the ongoing query loading.

Tap at the top of a line graph to show a data overlay with the actual data for the selected position. Slide up and down slowly on long data lists.

Year/category/country can be filtered with the upper input fields. It allows regular expressions like [A].* to show only countries starting with 'A' or [Mm]il to show categories starting or containing 'Mil' or 'mil'.

The field next to 'Show facts' button can be used to build queries like 'Show me the countries with a GDP bigger than some amount' (check pictures).

When starting writing in that field, little numbers will appear on the categories so one can refer to the number instead to the full exact category name.

Sometimes categories have subcategories, those are represented with a '"." (dot) separating the category it refers to from the subcategory index (like category.number-of-subcategories zero-based).

if a category label shows 1.3, 3 means there are 3 possible queries starting at zero for that category, like 1.0, 1.1, 1.2 (that could be the case for example in the 'Area (sq km)' category where "land", "water" and "total" can be found within it.

Example of valid query:

Area (sq km).land > 1000

equivalent to:

1.0 > 1000

Some examples can be found in the pictures.

Warning: This is work in progress so it could crash often. Beware selecting lots of data could use too much memory in your device. ## Similar extensions and apps - [World Factbook.
