Morsekoodin
Morsekoodin is a method of transmitting text information as a series of on-off tones, lights, or clicks, which can be directly understood by a skilled listener or observer without the need for any special equipment beyond a receiver. It was developed by Samuel Morse and Alfred Vail in the 1830s and 1840s, and is named after them. The Morse code is composed of dots and dashes, with each letter of the alphabet, each numeral, and a few punctuation marks assigned a specific combination of dots and dashes. The code is designed to be simple to use, with the most common letters and numerals being represented by the shortest codes. Morse code is still used today in various applications, including amateur radio, maritime communications, and emergency services. It is also used in some forms of electronic communication, such as in the transmission of data over Morse code telegraphy. The Morse code is a simple and effective way of transmitting information over long distances, and has been used for over 170 years.
