Answers: Is a protocol more rigid ?

A guideline is what you SHOULD do whereas a protocol is what you MUST do.

---

---

mine is.

i think guidelines advise you on how to do something

whilst protocol tell you exactly what you're meant to do

---

yes i would conclude that protocol is more rigid guidelines are a guide protocols are more like rules

---

I guideline will help guide you through a procedure, you can make changes that make it easier for your needs. A protocol has specific steps that must be adhered to or you have "Broken Protocol". Protocols are not made to be changed. Hope it helps.
