Population - d-util/dcalc GitHub Wiki
The newest feature in dcalc, version 0.12-beta.0, has added a live world population counter.
It uses a simple "LinReg" equation.
pw = 8188828110 + (round(days_since_2000 * 362759) - round(days_since_2000 * 170934))
This static algorithm is pretty similar to the reliable live data estimates from Worldometer and the United Nations 2024 Revision.
