We consider algebras with a single -ary operation and a certain type of associativity. We prove that (up to isomorphism) there are exactly 5of these associative mono--ary algebras with 2 elements for even ≥2 and 6 for odd ≥3. These algebras are described explicitly. It is shown that a similar result is impossible for algebras with at least 4 elements. An application concerning the assignment of a control bit to a string is given
