Explanation:
The Human Development Index (HDI) is a arithmetical device used to ration a country's complete attainment in its social and financial magnitudes. The social and economic magnitudes of a nation are built on the fitness of individuals, their level of teaching accomplishment and their standard of living. The maximum groove on the HDI is a 1.0. Countries with a score from 0.80 to 1.0 are measured to be countries with “very high human development.”
