The end of what I was trying to do was encode and decode using ITA2
International Telegraph Alphabet 2, more commonly called Baudot. It
uses 5 bit binary but with the use of a shift up or a shift down can
utilize 2 tables of 32- one for letters one for figures.
A better explanation of ITA2 here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Baudot
It occurred to me that rather than writing for four data dictionaries
(bin to ltrs, bin to figs, figs, to bin, figs to letters), I could just
swap the dictionary key/value pairs around.
It seems that I have more reading to do. I have not gotten to lambda
formations yet.
