RAINBOW SERIES


Meaning of RAINBOW SERIES in English

transcription, транскрипция: [ n. ]

Any of several series of technical manuals distinguished by cover color. The original rainbow series was the NCSC security manuals (see Orange Book , crayola books ); the term has also been commonly applied to the PostScript reference set (see Red Book , Green Book , Blue Book , White Book ). Which books are meant by "`the' rainbow series" unqualified is thus dependent on one's local technical culture.
