Comments: Connection between the space of number of descriptions (models) and probability of non-ambigutiy (and hence falsification). Complexity limits the language space. Also discusses the philosophy and obtains some results for the no. of data points v. complexity for inductive models.

Keywords: MODELS, SYSTEMS, SIMPLICITY, COMPLEXITY,
