Wiktionary example

These source excerpts show how gross domestic product appears in context. They illustrate usage; the definition above remains the entry’s reference meaning.

  1. Economics is a messy discipline: too fluid to be a science, too rigorous to be an art. Perhaps it is fitting that economists’ most-used metric, gross domestic product (GDP), is a tangle too. GDP measures the total value of output in an economic territory. Its apparent simplicity explains why it is scrutinised down to tenths of a percentage point every month.
