    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.   
      
    AS> Can you explain to me why Morse code is not binary?   
      
   in my mind, it is only binary because it has two symbols used in various   
   patterns... however, silence is also a symbol, isn't it?   
      
   the main reason why i see morse code as not binary is because it is not in   
   sequential order...   
      
   if you write ABC in morse it is .-  -...  -.-.   
   not .  ..  ... like you might expect in binary...
