guess you may have a look on this site first? basically you should first know about what is ERC20 first, for which over 80% of the projects are running under ERC20, while there are more and more standard releasing to the field to improve or give out different functions.

ERC is "Ethereum Request for Comments" and the number "20" is just signifies the unique proposal ID.

There are concept of ERC-20 - guarantees the token created to have simple transferability among wallets and contracts. There are three functions: ‘transfer’, ‘transferFrom’ and ‘allow’ that must exist in every ERC20 contract. People can simply use ‘transfer’ to send their tokens and if someone wants to spend token reside in a contract, the contract must first ‘allow’ the spender before the spender can ‘transferFrom’ token from that contract.

In additional, ERC-223 has been created with more features/functions. U can find more details about ERC, ERC-20 and ERC-223 here:
