Morse code

Morse code is an on-off signal code, which represents different English letters, numbers and punctuation marks through different arrangement orders. It was invented by Alfred de Ville, an American, who was assisting Samuel Morse in inventing the Morse telegraph. April 27th is the 2nd18th anniversary of Samuel Morse's birth.

Morse code is an early form of digital communication, but it is different from modern binary code, which only uses zero and one or two states. Its coding includes five types: dot, dash, short pause between words, middle pause between words and long pause between sentences.

The earliest Morse code was dots and dashes representing numbers. Numbers correspond to words. You need to look up a code table to know the numbers corresponding to each word. You can click, stroke and pause with the electric keys.
