The definition of the Sather language and its Required Library rely to some extent on the the standards given in the table below. These standards, so far as possible are international. The issuing body is therefore either the International Standards Organisation (ISO) alone or a joint standard issued by ISO and the International Electro-Technical Commission (IEC). Where this is not the case a separate reference to the standards body concerned is included in the table below. The text of a standard should be consulted for technical detail as needed.
NOTE Reference links provided in the table are to the actual text of the final draft standard where possible (copyright regulations prevent the publication of the actual standard without payment). Otherwise a reference is to some excerpt containing the relevant information pertaining to this specification.
