This is a scatter plot considering the dot (or dash) with its directly following space as an entity. The group 1 consists of, say “h”s, in which both dot and space periods are very exact. The group 2 consists of the letters such as “o”s, in which both the periods are controlled manually. The groups 3 and 4 are for the spaces between letters.
