A little python script to calculate GDP Growth. There are multiple ways to do it; this is just one of them. By this standard, Spain had the 3rd highest GDP growth in the original eurozone (11 countries) from the first quarter 1999 to the last quarter of 2007.
import math
import operator
number_of_quarters_in_a_year = 4;
number_of_quarters = 9 * number_of_quarters_in_a_year;
countries = [
{ "name" : "Belgium", "starting_growth" : 58433.0, "end_growth" : 85113.0},
{ "name" : "Germany", "starting_growth" : 493890.0, "end_growth" : 614660.0},
{ "name" : "Ireland", "starting_growth" : 21348.8 ,"end_growth" : 48091.5},
