Perhaps this (draft) task should be renamed to: &nbsp; &nbsp; <big> ''Sort a string of characters'' </big>
<br> which would &nbsp; "fit in" &nbsp; with the nomenclature with other Rosetta Code sorting tasks. &nbsp; &nbsp; -- [[User:Gerard Schildberger|Gerard Schildberger]] ([[User talk:Gerard Schildberger|talk]]) 17:43, 24 July 2021 (UTC)
 
 
== task requirements ==
 
I suggested that a stated string be specified to make comparisons easier. &nbsp; &nbsp; -- [[User:Gerard Schildberger|Gerard Schildberger]] ([[User talk:Gerard Schildberger|talk]]) 17:53, 24 July 2021 (UTC)
 
 
== task wording ==
 
I suggest that some wording be added to the (draft) task that explains that the phrase &nbsp; ''alphabetical order'' &nbsp; depends on the hardware system being used.
 
The &nbsp; '''ASCII''' &nbsp; order is &nbsp; (essentially):
digits, uppercase Latin letters, lowercase Latin letters, with other special characters strewn about.
The &nbsp; '''EBCDIC''' &nbsp; order is &nbsp; (essentially):
lowercase Latin letters, uppercase Latin letters, digits, with other special characters strewn about.
