ISO/IEC 14651 is an international standard that defines the rules for character string comparison, also known as collation. It provides a way to compare strings in a locale-sensitive manner, meaning the comparison takes into account various linguistic characteristics that influence the ordering of characters in different languages and scripts. The standard specifies a set of rules for defining collation orders, which include considerations such as: 1. **Character weight**: Each character is assigned a weight, which determines its importance in comparison.
