Which principles are corollary to Wallpicture principle ?

(i) Cow-calf principle
(ii) Principle of later-in-time
(iii) Whole - organ principle
(iv) All of the above

  • A.(i) and (ii) are correct
  • B.(ii) and (iii) are correct
  • C.(i) and (iii) are correct
  • D.(i) and (iv) are correct

Answer: C

The keyed answer is the cow-calf principle and the whole-organ principle, option C, statements (i) and (iii). In Ranganathan's theory of classification the wall-picture principle governs the sequence of classes by the way they would appear in a picture of a wall, and these two principles are listed as its corollaries.

The principle of later-in-time (ii) is a separate principle used to arrange classes in order of time, and the key does not count it among the corollaries of the wall-picture principle. Statement (iv), all of the above, therefore fails, which rules out option D. Options A and B each include the later-in-time principle and are wrong on the key.
