==Automation== {{Further|Collation#Automation}} [[Collation algorithm]]s (in combination with [[sorting algorithm]]s) are used in computer programming to place strings in alphabetical order. A standard example is the [[Unicode Collation Algorithm]], which can be used to put strings containing any [[Unicode]] symbols into (an extension of) alphabetical order.<ref name=unicode10/> It can be made to conform to most of the language-specific conventions described above by tailoring its default collation table. Several such tailorings are collected in [[Common Locale Data Repository]].
