Now what on earth is "collation"? I take it that what's meant is sorting
or ordering of character strings. Who coins terms like this, or is this
one part of some established terminology that has so far escaped me?
IOW, does this particular term have any authority? If not, away with it.
"Ordering", but preferably "sorting" are readily understood by everybody.
