04How we got this number
- Presence abroad
Sum of each place's weight: widespread = 1, regional = 0.5, marginal = 0.1. Where it only exists as a Brazilian export, the weight is multiplied by 0.5.
- 6.2
- Exclusivity E
From 0 (exists everywhere) to 1 (only in Brazil), on a log scale.
- 0.57
- Intensity I
How much more common it is in Brazil than in the other places where it exists.
More common in Brazil, but the bowl is now sold in cafés across half the world (fictional data). [2]
- 2 of 4
- Rarity coefficient R
R = E + 0.5 × (I ÷ 4) × (1 − E)
R = 0.57 + 0.5 × (2 ÷ 4) × (1 − 0.57) = 0.68
- 0.68
