9、tion for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards institutes (IS0 member bodies). The work of developing International Standards is carried out through IS0 technical committees. Every member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has been set up has the

10、right to be represented on that committee. International organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. Draft International Standards adopted by the technical committees are circulated to the member bodies for approval before their acceptance as In

11、ternational Standards by the IS0 Council. International Standard IS0 5218 was developed by Technical Committee ISO/TC 97, Computers and information processing, and was circulated to the member bodies in November 1976. It has been approved by the member bodies of the following countries : Australia G

14、COPE AND FIELD OF APPLICATION such is intended to provide a common basis for the inter- national exchange of information containing sex data elements. This International Standard specifies a uniform represen- tation of human sexes for the interchange of information. It is intended to : a) reduce the

15、 time required to record and/or format the representation of sexes and transmit them; b) improve clarity and accuracy of interchange; c) minimize the amount of human intervention required for communicating the representation of sexes; and d) reduce costs. This International Standard does not prescri

16、be file sequences, storage media, programming languages, or other features of information processing to be used in its implementation. This International Standard meets the requirements of most applications that need to code human sexes. It does not provide codes for sexes that may be required in sp

17、ecific medical and scientific applications or in applications that need to code sex information for other than human beings. This International Standard does not supplant national standards for coding sexes that are designed based upon codes derived from the names of the sexes in the various languag

18、es (for example “M” for “Male” and “F” for “Female” in the English language). It provides a numeric code that is independent of language-derived codes and as 2 REPRESENTATION OF SEXES Sex is represented by a one-character numeric code. The following data items and codes are used : Data item Code Not

19、 known 0 (zero) Male 1 (one) Female 2 (two) Not specified 9 (nine) 3 DESIGNATOR The use of this standard and associated codes may be referred to by the designator “SEX”. 4 QUALIFICATION No significance is to be placed on the fact that “Male” is coded “1” and “Female” is coded “2”. This standard was

20、developed based upon predominant practices of the countries involved and does not convey any meaning of importance, ranking or any other basis that could imply discrimination. 1 Copyright American National Standards Institute Provided by IHS under license with ANSINot for ResaleNo reproduction or networking permitted without license from IHS-,-,-
