I haven't completely understood the dual nature of matter and electromagnetic radiation.
If all matter has wave nature and and all waves have particle nature then how will one distinguish between particles and waves? If there is no distinction between a particle and a wave then what is a matter wave...shouldn't all waves be called matter waves? (I am new to this concept so the question may be silly)

Dual nature of matter and electromagnetic radiations
