Title: Performance profiles of major energy producers [electronic resource]

  • Distribution Media: 5 1/4" floppy diskette
  • SuDoc Number: E3.37/3:

Abstract: This data collection contains 20 tables from Appendix B of the Energy Information Administration's annual report, "Performance Profiles of Major Energy Producers" from 1977 to 1992.

Extent of Collection: The distribution media contained a DOS ASCII text table guide and 20 DOS Lotus (.WK1) data tables.

Data Conversion: Extraneous DOS ASCII characters were removed from the table guide. The "fixed" guide was saved with a .TXT file extension. The DOS Lotus 123 data tables were translated to ASCII CSV format. For more information about data conversion, see File Processing and Quality Control.

Minimum Software Requirements: (1) Software capable of reading ASCII text files. (2) Statistical software capable of importing ASCII CSV data tables.

  • ASCII text - text files can be read by most file viewers and word processing software.
  • ASCII data - text data files can be imported into most statistical and database software. Data values may or may not use separators. Common separators are commas (ASCII CSV), tabs or spaces.

Files: DOS ASCII files contain carriage return characters. ASCII files do not contain cariage return characters. For information about downloading these files, see Downloading Tips.
