Primary Arithmetic as Semiotic System (concl.) —
Let S be the set of rooted trees and let S₀ be the 2‑element subset
consisting of a rooted node and a rooted edge. Simple intuition,
or a simple inductive proof, will assure us that any rooted tree
can be reduced by means of the axioms of the primary arithmetic
to either a root node or a rooted edge.
For example, consider the reduction which proceeds as follows.

Regarded as a semiotic process, this amounts to a sequence of
signs, every one after the first serving as an “interpretant”
of its predecessor, ending in a final sign which may be taken
as the canonical sign for their common object, in the upshot
being the result of the computation process.
Simple as it is, the sequence exhibits the main features of
any computation, namely, a semiotic process proceeding from
an obscure sign to a clear sign of the same object, being
in its aim and effect an action on behalf of clarification.
