The kinds of mnemonics are :
(a) Scheduled mnemonics
(b) Special mnemonics
(c) Seminal mnemonics
(d) Systematic mnemonics
Answer: C
The kinds of mnemonics are (a), (c), (d): scheduled, seminal and systematic.
Ranganathan classified mnemonics, the aids that let the same idea be represented by the same digits wherever it occurs, into kinds that include scheduled mnemonics (a common schedule such as the time or space schedule used throughout a scheme), systematic mnemonics (the same sequence of ideas arranged in the same order), seminal mnemonics (the same seminal idea represented by the same digit across categories) and verbal or alphabetical mnemonics.
'Special mnemonics' is not one of his kinds, so every option including (b) is wrong.
