I'm racking my brain trying to come up with the right word that would fit the following context:
"C" represents the prototype/benchmark value of a variable and is used to detect any changes in the variable over time by way of comparing the variable and the prototype/benchmark value.
I think that "prototype" or "benchmark" will do, but not sure.
Could you clear my doubts and tell me what word(s) a native speaker would use in this context.
Thanks !
Top answer
Well, not 'prototype'. 'Benchmark' sounds OK; also 'control', 'standard', 'reference'?
