There doesn't seem to be any place on the net with this particular answer.  I've tried several search engines and nothing points to it.  \n\nHowever I can tell you that the population of the world as of this hour (17:49 GMT (EST+5) Jan 02, 2006) stands at 6,488,933,852. (1st link below).  \n\nAlso the census bureau has an area in which you can e-mail a question to them.  You may want to try that.  It is the 2nd link below.\n\nGood Luck!\n\n:)\nPeace

Historical estimates say about 200 million.  \n\nSorry, can't help you with the math...\n\nhttp://www.census.gov/ipc/www/worldhis.html\n\nPlus you're assuming a doubling of population every generation.  Not everybody had children.

Maybe it shouldn't be implemented? In other countries, population size is declining withough such policies, so there might be other ways to achieve that goal.

I see why you had a hard time finding this yourself, census is how it's spelled.\n\nHere's a table of the 2001 Indian Census. The maps you have to pay for but you can get them from the same website.

1.3 billion plus and growing. But India with 1.1 billion currently is slated to become the most populous country by 2020 (some say even earlier in 2010) The reason being, China's family size has been strictly controlled by the Govt, for the last 10 or so years, in India it is still not uncommon, especially in rural areas, to see a set of parents having 7 or 8 kids!

Demographics is a shorthand term for 'population characteristics'. Demographics include age, income, mobility (in terms of travel time to work or number of vehicles available), educational attainment, home ownership, employment status, and even location. Distributions of values within a demographic variable, and across households, are both of interest, as well as trends over time. Demographics is used in marketing research, opinion research, political research, the study of consumer behaviour, as well as in straightforward marketing

There are some fields where accurate measurements are not possible.In such cases statistical tools are very useful;eg- significance testing & hypothesis could be very useful where the size of population is either very large or unknown.For this purpous various formulas have been derived.\nhence the statistical tools can be used to analyse situations like change in population after 10 years,degree of defects in blubs manufactured etc.

its highly significant. for data to be of any use at all it needs to be processed into information (something that makes sence)

GDP per capita is adjusted for population. There's no GDP measure that's adjusted for population growth

Factors that are detrimental to a nation's growth vary from one nation to another. However the prominent factors are- a high population growth rate, high rate of unemployment and social and income inequalities. These along with secondary factors like inflation, corruption etc. retard the growth of developing nations.
