Hey guys, I’m trying to script a sentence in morse code. The output I want is a line segment in dash and dots following the rules of Morse code. The length of a dot is 1 time unit. A dash is 3 time units. The space between symbols (dots and dashes) of the same letter is 1 time unit. The space bet…

[image] ajmal.majeed.v: it’s a bit geeky :rofl: you said it! The idea is to have a sequence of numbers defining the length of “on” and “off” state. Make mass addiction > partial results and then evaluate length to get parameters, and shatter with those parameters. Then doing a dispatch will…

Where did you get your Morse Code table?

Here https://morsecode.world/international/morse2.html I searched for the easiest to copy-paste. There are errors? PS1 i wrote brown as BOWN … PS2 the space character, i’ve translated to ‘_’ but it could have just been translated into itself in the first translation, making it " = " in the first…

I wasn’t checking you, I was just wondering how you got it into such a nice GH format.

Yes, many morse code tables are shown in 2 or more columns and selecting them mess up the order. In that page the <div>s are probably in an order which made the selecting easy. Then removing the spaces with notepad++ is a 30 sec task, using ALT+drag to edit many rows at once: [n++] (I’m saying t…

Riccardo, You Rockstar! It’s just perfectly what I wanted. Reverse-engineering it makes sense of the logic. I can now complete my tattoo! Thanks buddy!

[image] ajmal.majeed.v: tattoo whoa! Please double… triple check if the dictionary i’ve used is correct! (I’ve just copy-pasted from a random google result). Check that everything is correct and translate back to counter proof the correct-ness of everything.

Absolutely, I cross-checked already. Will do multiple proof reading before inking! Thanks anyways, Appreciate it!

Just as an aside, there’s a great book “The Victorian Internet” by Tom Standage that makes the case the telegraph was a more world-shaking development than the WWW. I tend to agree. https://www.amazon.com/Victorian-Internet-Remarkable-Nineteenth-line/dp/162040592X

This sounded like a fun little problem, so I gave it a go in Python: [image] Thanks for the inspiration! Morse Code Curve.gh (11.8 KB) MorseCodeDict.txt (184 Bytes)
