Hi, Anton Shepelev! -> Alexander Koryagin
I read your message from 03.03.2021 16:48

 AK>> Morse's code consists of letters, digits and punctuation
 AK>> marks.

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

First, it is not a binary code, BTW, I tell you as a programmer. Second, why
it is wrong to say that, for instance, a language consists of words? Should I
say it consists of letters?

Bye, Anton!
