Show detail Hide detail

This file contains data collected for a survey of university graduates in mathematics. The survey was to provide information on the kinds of mathematics used in Canada, to what extent they are being used and to suggest areas of mathematics which are not being studied. Data were collected for three main areas: biographical and professional information, mathematics and present job, and reflections by the respondents on their mathematical education.

Conservation:

While migrating this file as part of the 2012-2015 migration project it was determined that there were 10 extra records in this file. The records were deleted using a sort and remove duplicates records command in unix. As a result, the migrated file contains 3,231 records as per the documentation. The original file contains the extra 10 records for a total count of 3,241.

It is assumed these records were placed in the file as part of the original 9-track tape migration exercise that was undertaken in 1986. The records may have been placed in the file because someone used a fill block parameter in the original Job Control Language (JCL) that was used to copy the material from one tape to another.

The original data were extracted from tape P16256 and then converted from EBCDIC to ASCII using UltraEdit.

Custodial history:

Digital records migrated to new preservation media in 2013.
