            Notes on the tables
            1. Rounding may lead to inconsistencies between the sum of constituent parts and the total in some tables.
            2. Symbols used
                 -  nil or less than half the final digit shown
            Quality
            Common pitfalls in interpreting series are the following
            1. Expectations of accuracy and reliability in early estimates are often too high
            2. Revisions are an inevitable consequence of the trade off between timeliness and accuracy
            3. Early estimates are based on incomplete data
            Very few statistical revisions arise as a result of ‘errors’ in the popular sense of the word. All estimates, by definition, are subject to statistical 'error',
            but in this context the word refers to the uncertainty inherent in any process or calculation that uses sampling, estimation or modelling. Most revisions reflect
            either the adoption of new statistical techniques, or the incorporation of new information which allows the statistical error of previous estimates to be reduced.
            Only rarely are there avoidable ‘errors’ such as human or system failures, and such mistakes are made quite clear when they do occur.
