• B. Robert's Rules of Order
• C. Parker

Answer: (A)

The question tests knowledge of who authored the Standard Code of Parliamentary Procedure. The Standard Code was written by Alice Sturgis, and it’s commonly known as the Sturgis Standard Code. It presents a more concise, flexible approach to conducting meetings compared with Robert’s Rules, making it a popular alternative for many organizations. The other names listed correspond to different parliamentary authorities, not the original author of the Standard Code.
