While classifying documents by any scheme of classification we use ................... .

(i) Idea plane
(ii) Natural plane
(iii) Verbal plane
(iv) Notational plane

Codes :

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

Answer: D

Classification works on (i) the idea plane, (iii) the verbal plane and (iv) the notational plane.

Ranganathan's dynamic theory of classification identifies three planes of work: the idea plane, where subjects are analysed and arranged; the verbal plane, where they are expressed in terms; and the notational plane, where they are represented by class numbers.

There is no 'natural plane' in this theory, so every code including (ii) is wrong.
