Look here ( http://www.census.gov/developers/data/2010acs5_variables.xml�)�for the list of tables for which it pulls the data.� � B*****_**{E,M} gives you the Estimate and MOE respectively.�

I�ve noticed that the table codes used in the API requests don�t seem to match the table codes used in the table master lists or in American Fact Finder. For example the ACS 5-year table number for �Total Population� is B01003, but in the examples of API requests here the table number used to fetch population statistics for California and New York is B02001_001E, which the master list would have me believe is the table code for race (plus the �_001E� which I�m mystified by).

Is there a separate list of table IDs that the API recognizes / am I using the wrong lists?
