            // The newly created Alphabet will have been registered with the
            // AlphabetManager under the name "Binary". If you retreive an instance
            // of it using this name it should be canonical with the previous instance
            IAlphabet alpha = AlphabetManager.AlphabetForName("Binary");
 
            // Check canonical status
