18、oreword ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) and IEC (the International Electrotechnical Commission) form the specialized system for worldwide standardization. National bodies that are members of ISO or IEC participate in the development of International Standards through technic

19、al committees established by the respective organization to deal with particular fields of technical activity. ISO and IEC technical committees collaborate in fields of mutual interest. Other international organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO and IEC, also take part

20、in the work. In the field of information technology, ISO and IEC have established a joint technical committee, ISO/IEC JTC 1. Draft International Standards adopted by the joint technical committee are circulated to national bodies for voting. Publication as an International Standard requires approva

21、l by at least 75 % of the national bodies casting a vote. International Standard ISO/IEC 646 was prepared by Joint Technical Committee ISO/IEC JTC 1, Information technology. This third edition cancels and replaces the second edition (ISO 646:1983) which has been technically revised. Annex A forms an

22、 integral part of this International Standard. Annex B and Annex C are for information only.ISO/IEC646:1991(E) BSI 10-1999 1 1 Scope This International Standard specifies a set of 128 characters, (control characters and graphic characters such as letters, digits and symbols) with their coded represe

23、ntation. Most of these characters are mandatory and unchangeable, but provision is made for some flexibility to accommodate national and other requirements. This International Standard specifies a 7-bit coded character set with a number of options. It also provides guidance on how to exercise the op

24、tions to define specific national versions and application-oriented versions. Furthermore it specifies the International Reference Version (IRV) in which such options have been exercised. This character set is primarily intended for the interchange of information among data processing systems and as

25、sociated equipment, and within data communication systems. The need for graphic characters and control functions in data processing has also been taken into account in determining this character set. This character set is applicable to alphabets of the Latin script. This character set allows the use

26、 of control characters for code extension where its character set is insufficient for particular applications. Procedures for the use of these control characters are specified in ISO 2022. The definitions of the control characters mentioned in this International Standard are specified in ISO6429. It

27、 is assumed that data associated with them are to be processed serially in a forward direction. When they are included in strings of data which are processed other than serially in a forward direction or when they are included in data formatted for fixed-record processing they may have undesirable e

28、ffects or may require additional special treatment to ensure that they result in their desired function. 2 Conformance and implementation 2.1 Conformance 2.1.1 Conformance of information interchange A coded-character-data-element (CC-data-element) within coded information for interchange is in confo

29、rmance with this International Standard if all the coded representations of characters within that CC-data-element conform to the requirements of8.1 of this International Standard. A claim of conformance shall identify the version adopted in accordance with 8.2 to 8.4. 2.1.2 Conformance of devices A

30、 device is in conformance with this International Standard if it conforms to the requirements of2.1.2.1, and either or both of 2.1.2.2 and 2.1.2.3 below. A claim of conformance shall identify the version adopted. 2.1.2.1 Device description A device that conforms to this International Standard shall

31、be the subject of a description that identifies the means by which the user may supply characters to the device, or may recognize them when they are made available to him, as specified respectively in 2.1.2.2 and 2.1.2.3. 2.1.2.2 Originating devices An originating device shall allow its user to supp

32、ly any sequence of characters from the version adopted, and shall be capable of transmitting their coded representations within a CC-data-element. 2.1.2.3 Receiving devices A receiving device shall be capable of receiving and interpreting any coded representations of characters that are within a CC-

33、data-element, and that conform to 2.1.1, and shall make the corresponding characters available to its user in such a way that the user can identify them from among those of the version adopted, and can distinguish them from each other. 2.2 Implementation The use of this character set requires defini

34、tions of its implementation in various media. For example, these could include punched tapes, punched cards, magnetic and optical interchangeable media and transmission channels, thus permitting interchange of data to take place either indirectly by means of an intermediate recording on a physical m

35、edium, or by local connection of various units (such as input and output devices and computers) or by means of data transmission equipment.ISO/IEC646:1991(E) 2 BSI 10-1999 The implementation of this coded character set in physical media and for transmission, taking into account the need for error ch

36、ecking, is the subject of other International Standards. 3 Normative references The following standards contain provisions which, through reference in this text, constitute provisions of this International Standard. At the time of publication, the editions indicated were valid. All standards are sub

37、ject to revision, and parties to agreements based on this International Standard are encouraged to investigate the possibility of applying the most recent editions of the standards listed below.

ISO/IEC 6429, Information processing Control functions for 7-bit and 8-bit coded character sets 1) . 4 Definitions For the purpose of this International Standard the following definitions apply. 4.1 active positio

39、n the character position which is to image the graphic symbol representing the next graphic character or relative to which the next control function is to be executed NOTE 1In general, the active position is indicated in a display by a cursor. 4.2 bit combination an ordered set of bits used for the

40、representation of characters 4.3 character a member of a set of elements used for the organization, control or representation of data 4.4 character position the portion of a display that is imaging or is capable of imaging a graphic symbol 4.5 coded character set; code a set of unambiguous rules tha

41、t establishes a character set and the one-to- one relationship between the characters of the set and their bit combinations 4.6 coded-character-data-element (CC-data-element) an element of interchanged information that is specified to consist of a sequence of coded representations of characters, in

42、accordance with one or more identified standards for coded character sets NOTE 2In a communication environment according to the Reference Model for Open Systems Interconnection (ISO 7498), a CC-data-element will form all or part of the information that corresponds to the Presentation Protocol Data U

43、nit (PPDU) defined in that International Standard. NOTE 3When information interchange is accomplished by means of interchangeable media, a CC-data-element will form all or part of the information that corresponds to the user data, and not that recorded during formatting and initialization. 4.7 code

46、rocessing equipment which can transmit, and/or receive, coded information within CC-data-elements NOTE 4It may be an input/output device in the conventional sense, or a process such as an application program or gateway function. 4.12 escape sequence a string of bit combinations that is used for cont

47、rol purposes in code extension procedures. The first of these bit combinations represents the control function ESCAPE 4.13 final byte the bit combination that terminates an escape sequence or a control sequence 4.14 graphic character a character, other than a control function, that has a visual repr

49、s of one or more bit combinations of a coded character set 4.17 user a person or other entity that invokes the services provided by a device NOTE 5This entity may be a process such as an application program if the “device” is a code convertor or a gateway function, for example. NOTE 6The characters, as supplied by the user or made available to him, may be in the form of codes local to the device, or of non-conventional visible representations, provided that2.1.2 above is satisfied. 5 Notation, code table and names 5.1 Notation The bits of the
