What is Information Technology Standards ? Please give a real world example
Standards can said as things that are used for purposes of allowing some common ground for interchange. technology standards are the standards that are mainly used to avoid the confusion that arise if it is not standardised.As we all use a,b,c,d.... as sandardised alphabet similarly we use standardisation in IT also.These standards are given from reputed organisations such as International Standards for Organisation(ISO) and other institutes line IEEE etc.When a language is emerged many people try to use it in many different ways and this can lead to many different versions of the same thing.
An example can be said from the emergence of ANSI C
When c was developed by Dennis Ritche it became so popular that people began to develop many compilers and thus a program which was used in one computer couldnt be run on another this afected ath e portability feature of C language. Thus the American National Standardisation Institute standardised C as ANSI C.
