Categorization I: Gives minimum number in each group               (1= yes 0= no or missing)
Categorization is mutually exclusive and exhaustive

  United States Citizens and Permanent Residents
       Unknown Race/Ethnicity                            2   ----- all zero or missing -----
       American Indian/Alaska Native only                3   1     0     0     0     0     0     yes

       Non-Hispanic plus more than one race              9a  --- any two or more -----     0     yes
       Hispanic/Latino plus one or more races            9b  --- any one or more -----     1     yes
       Total (Sum of 1-9b = unduplicated total)          10

Categorization II: Gives maximum number in each category
Categorization is neither mutually exclusive nor exhaustive  
  Selected categories listed
       (U.S. citizens and permanent residents only)
       Hispanic/Latino                                   11  ------- any value ----------- 1      no
       American Indian/Alaska Native                     12  1 ----- any value -------------      no
       Asian American                                    13  ----- 1 ----- any value -------      no
       Black/African American                            14  ---- any -- 1 -- value --------      no
       Native Hawaiian & Other Pacific Islander          15  ----------------- 1 -----------      no
       White                                             16  ----- any value --------1------      no

Total of 11-16 excludes NR alien and unknown ethnicity entirely 
and double (or more) counts individuals who checked multiple categories
Line 11 = line 8 + line 9b
Lines 12 - 16 cannot be derived from lines 1 - 10
