The word mark, followed by number, is a method of designating a version of a product. The kind of products that use this convention vary widely in complexity. The concept shares some similarities with the "type designation", the 1.0+ software versioning convention often used to designate general software product releases, and other version control schemas. It is often abbreviated as Mk or M. Because a mark is often made to measure height or progress, by metonymy the word mark is used to note a defined level of development; thus designations like "Mark I", "Mark II", "Mark III", "Mark IV", etc. come to be used as proper names. However, since the same name is used for a wide variety of products, it can have varied connotations for different persons.
