Um, no they are not. Not in any sense of the word. Numbers, you can add.
Try adding 'a'+'b' and coming up with a meaningful result.
Numbers are used to represent quantities which are -- usually --
subdivisible. For example, gallons, inches, ...
Characters are nothing of the sort, although they are necessarily
represented as numbers in the computer. You can't have 'b.5' (b-and-a-half).
Sincerely,
Ted.
