Morse Code Alphabet• Up until the time a man by the name of Samuel Morse devised a method of converting a human “primary” language to a “secondary” language – messages and information was either sent in the written form via a messenger who was a “runner” –or- on horse-back.

• Besides a series of one-to-four dots or dashes to represent the 26 letters of the alphabet (not shown here are punctuation marks, numbers, et al);

•The “Morse Code” also had to have a way to tell the “receiving” party when to “start” the message and when to “end” the message.

• Also, since the Morse Code was by-passing the “runner” or “Pony-Express” horseback rider to send messages ---

•The two devices below were also required to complete the “informational loop”.

As a little classroom exercise – let’s use Morse Code to set up a message using our school’s name – Madison.

•We need a start code•We then need the respective codes for each letter separated by a comma (,)•We then need a stop code.
