What is the difference between a survey and a questionnaire?

A questionnaire given to a hundred people in order to estimate the views of a thousand similar people is a survey. A questionnaire given to a thousand people to determine their views is a census. That's pretty much it.
Questionaire is used to have an estimation on the total population. Where as survey helps in making good notes on the entire population.
