Discussion
Census of India is a .............. type of database.
Answer: A
The Census of India is a numerical database.
A numerical (or numeric) database holds statistical figures rather than references or text. The Census tabulates counts of population by age, sex, literacy, occupation, religion, household amenities and so on, for every administrative unit, so its content is numbers to be retrieved and analysed.
It is not bibliographical, since it does not describe documents; not full text, since the user is after the figures rather than a document's text; and not pictorial, since its core is tables, not images or maps.
