Morse Code
With everything in this world, it is important to know your roots.
With the web in existence, communication between people changed and
was taken to entirely new heights. Between chat room, forums and
bulletin boards, people from all walks of life from anywhere in the
world can discuss their favorite topics, or voice their own
opinions on just about anything.
One of the first of this kind of communication was the Morse
Code. Created in the 1840's, it is a type of character encoding
that transmits telegraphic information using rhythm. Morse code
uses a standardized sequence of short and long elements to
represent the letters, numerals, punctuation and special characters
of a given message. The short and long elements can be formed by
sounds, marks, or pulses, in on off keying and are commonly known
as "dots" and "dashes" or "dits" and "dahs". The speed of Morse
code is measured in words per minute (WPM) or characters per
minute, while fixed-length data forms of telecommunication
transmission are usually measured in baud or bps. Still today,
Morse code one of the most versatile methods of telecommunication
in existence.
