Morse Code Translator

This lesson is part of Web Developer Tools · All levels

Summary

Morse code translates letters and numbers into a sequence of dots and lines. Each letter is separated by a space, while the word is separated by a slash or wider space. The translator can convert the text into Morse or vice versa. Morse is a classical communication password, not an encryption substitute for classified data.

Key points

The dots and lines represent short and long signals
The separation of letters and words must be consistent
The capital letters and the lower case letters are treated the same
Numbers and punctuation have their own code.
Morse is easy to read so it's not encrypted.
