Alexander Koryagin to Anton Shepelev:

AS>> Wrong -- Morse  code comprises but two symbols: the dot
AS>> and the dash. It is a binary code.

AK> First, it is not a binary code, BTW, I  tell  you  as  a
AK> programmer.

Can you explain to me why Morse code is not binary?

AK> Second,  why  it  is  wrong to say that, for instance, a
AK> language consists of words?

Because in addition to words language has high-level  struc-
ture, i.e. grammar and syntax.

AK> Should I say it consists of letters?

No.  Even  words do not consist of letters, because they ex-
isted before writing was invented.
