monoid acts on tree

:Yes, I think you are right. Any mention of ''p''-adic numbers in this section is mostly misleading (or at least would require a lot of explanation to clarify the point being made), so that should be left out. And the whole "dyadic monoid" bit is confusing. I have cut down the section by removing most of these confusing references. There is still an outstanding point around the subtle distinction between the monoid which contains only finite strings and the limit object which contains countably infinite strings or sequences of functions - I may try to add some further explanation when I have more time.

::I think the point is that the monoid (finite strings) ''[[Group action#Generalizations|acts]]'' on the tree (infinite paths). [[User:Richard Pinch|Richard Pinch]] ([[User talk:Richard Pinch|talk]]) 20:08, 16 July 2008 (UTC)
