A list of equivalent characters of a regular expression that is enclosed in `[=' and `=]' metacharacters

(1) A grouping of characters that are considered equal for the purpose of collation; for example, many languages place an uppercase character in the same equivalence class as its lowercase form, but some languages distinguish between accented and unaccented character forms for the purpose of collation IBM (2) A set of collating elements with the same primary collation weight Elements in an equivalence class are typically elements that naturally group together, such as all accented letters based on the same base letter The collation order of elements within an equivalence class is determined by the weights assigned on any subsequent levels after the primary weight X/Open
A grouping of characters or character strings that are considered equal for purposes of collation For example, many languages place an uppercase character in the same equivalence class as its lowercase form, but some languages distinguish between accented and unaccented character forms for the purpose of collation
