18、orldwide federation of national standards bodies (ISOmember bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through ISO technicalcommittees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has been established hasthe right to be represented on

19、that committee. International organizations, governmental and non-governmental, inliaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates closely with the International ElectrotechnicalCommission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization.International Standards are drafted in a

20、ccordance with the rules given in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 3.Draft International Standards adopted by the technical committees are circulated to the member bodies for voting.Publication as an International Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the member bodies casting a vote.Attention

27、e sequence of characters to be used in the alphabetical ordering ofmultilingual terminological and lexicographical data (terms, term elements, or words) represented in the Latinalphabet. Character sets of languages represented in the Latin alphabet are taken into account insofar asterminological or

28、lexicographical data have been recorded. Character sets used in internationally standardizedtransliteration into Latin script are also taken into account.The sequence of alphabetical characters given is intended for multilingual purposes only and is not intended toaffect the alphabetical order of an

29、y specific language.The main part of this International Standard specifies letter-by-letter ordering of character strings. Normative annex Atreats word-by-word ordering, which is a widely used alternative to this system.Informative annex B gives two additional rules that may be useful for lexicograp

30、hical and terminological ordering.Informative annex C gives ordering rules for chemical names.Informative annex D lists the character repertoire of the Latin alphabet.Informative annex E lists languages using the Latin alphabet.Informative annex F gives alphabetical sequences derived from the sequen

40、ccording to a string comparison specification4 Preparatory proceduresIn the process of alphabetical ordering, character strings are compared according to a set of rules. ThisInternational Standard specifies the set of rules to be used for the ordering, but does not address the means ofselection of r

41、elevant character strings, nor any modification of the strings that may be needed for a given purpose.Consequently, certain preparatory procedures may be needed before applying the ordering rules. Depending onthe needs in each individual case the relevant character strings may have to be selected, e

42、.g. relevant terms may have to be extracted from acorpus, the character strings may have to be modified, e.g. sentence-initial uppercase letters may have to be changedto lowercase letters, plural form of words may have to be changed to singular form, or leading zeroes or spaces may be added e.g. in

43、lists containing numerals.Polygraphs are treated as sequences of separate letters.SANS 12199:2008This s tandard may only be used and printed by approved subscription and freemailing clients of the SABS .ISO 12199:2000(E) ISO 2000 All rights reserved 3An application may arrange information into sever

44、al ordering fields, and determine ranking order with severalseparate and independent comparisons. This International Standard only defines a single comparison for one suchfield, where the field is a character-string field.Only the characters that appear in the string and their arrangement are taken

45、into account. Apart from the orderingrules and passes, no other knowledge about the words in the character string is used. For example, dictionaryinformation or rules about language syntax, phonetics and semantics are not used.5 First ordering level5.1 First-ordering-level valuesWhen comparing strin

46、gs to be ordered, the first-ordering-level values of the strings shall be considered first. Thesubsequent ordering-level values need to be considered only if two or more strings have identical first-ordering-level values.For multilingual ordering, the following rules shall be applied (see annex A fo

47、r word-by-word ordering):5.2 First-ordering-level sequenceDigits and letters have the following ordering values:a) Digits: 0123456789NOTE 1 Sequences of digits will be ordered from left to right as written, thus generating the following order, e.g.: 1101001111011112191902213.NOTE 2 Leading zeroes ma

48、y be inserted as a preparatory procedure, e.g. to generate the following order: 0001 0002 00030010 0011 0012 0019 0021 0100 0110 0111 0190.b) Basic letters of the Latin alphabet:aA bB cC dD eE fF gG hH iI jJ kK lL mM nNoO pP qQ rR sS tT uU vV wW xX yY zZ NOTE 1 This order has been established for us

See informative annex F for examples of deviations from this sequence in some languages.Uppercase and lowercase letters shall be treated as equivalent (see clause 7). Letters of the Latin alphabet withdiacritical marks shall be treated as equivalent to the corresponding basic Latin letters (see clause 6).
