This book offers a practitioner's introduction to a field that lies at the intersection of statistics and economics. In Africa, this field is characterized by the unique nature of the continent's macroeconomy, which is marked by the existence of an informal sector that renders statistical coverage of national economies incomplete. Data availability is one of the primary challenges faced by specialists. Furthermore, the tools used are descriptive statistics and econometrics, which, in addition to analysis, allow for the correction of flawed data. All economic agents utilize these analyses. However, wider dissemination is required to contribute more effectively to overcoming underdevelopment.
