Morse Code : Breaking The Code

Since the first Transatlantic telegraph cable was laid out in 1858, the world as we know has continued to shrink (Mercer, 2006, p.17). Suddenly people could communicate around the world almost instantly, sharing information, ideas, or just greetings. This trend continued when Alexander Graham

Prior to the discovery of the electrical telegraph, information and ideas were transmitted via boats, horses, and trains. Soon enough scientists realized the ease of constructing an electrical telegraph, this led to two working systems one created by William Cooke from England and the other one by Samuel Morse from the United States. Morse’s rendition of the system came to be known as the Morse Code System, which was a series of dots and lines that represented letters. Despite the hard work of the scientists, the government did not think much of their inventions and denied any support for their projects. After much convincing, the Congress granted Morse $30,000 to make improvements to his model, which he did. Even after his impressive presentation, people undermined the true value of the potential of electronic telegraphing. Meanwhile, in Britain the impact of the new telegraph was brought forth as it announced the birth of Queen Victoria’s second son. Regardless of the hard efforts of Cooke and Morse (along with other contributors), the government and public still

In the 1800s information would take weeks if not months to be sent and delivered in order  to gain small to vital bits of information. In those times obtaining or sending information was tedious and slow, using methods like a letter, pigeons, or messengers. These tactics were unsafe and not secure for vital governmental information. Samuel Morse a graduate of Yale University is credited with the invention of Morse code (a code invented by him and named after him) and the invention of the

Economic Discussion Prior to the electric telegraph, a long-distant message might be received through one of the following: fires, beacons, pigeon posts, or semaphores. At this point, the latest semaphore was recorded sending a message from Paris to Liles in under thirty two minutes. Before the telegraph, America used the Pony Express which delivered mail by horse. A message would be delivered by a series of men over a period of time before the message was received. This invaded privacy; also, depending on location, the message may take up to a week to be received.

Transmitting codes has been around for nearly two centuries, First using a code called Morse code when they needed to transmit vital messages from Washington D.C up to Baltimore within short periods of time. They would transmit these messages from a device called the telegraph during the Civil War period. The reason why it’s called Morse CODE is because only a few people in the whole world knew how to translate the message from a few dots and dashes to whole sentences and send a message back. The reason for this is because morse came up with a unique form of his own language using a designated code of dots and dashes.

Samuel Morse was most famous for “Morse Code” that used variations of dots and dashes to identify letters. After translating your letter into Morse Code, it was traced onto a blank piece of paper with black ink and was written in english. Samuel Morse’s innovation allowed secret messages harder to intercept and translate quickly. Communication was substantially improved by the speed of deliverance of letters and secret messages. Back in the 1830s and today, Morse Code is a great form of communication when there are no alternative ways to reply. The form of communication was and still is an option when conditions are bad and it is difficult to communicate to one another. The innovation made by Samuel Morse will forever have an impact on the United

Back in the 1800s there were no telephones or anything like that so they had to create something that could go long distances in the shortest possible time, so they created the telegraph which at first consisted of letters not dots and dashes. But people found out that it is easier to do dots and dashes rather than full

She faces conflict of unfairness and is fired for irrelevant reasons and makes a 'poo pie' as her way of getting back at the white family who fired her. Minny's strong, loyal character is a safe representation of the stereotypical 'sassy' character. Taylor produces a fair portrayal of characters. Each actor catches the essence of the film and personalities of each individual very well. By changing the point of view of each character, Taylors switches the mood, allowing the audience to capture the contrasting perspectives through different outlooks.

Imagine a society without instantaneous telecommunication. This is hard to comprehend in a society used to computers, tablets, and smartphones with their ability to enable rapid communication through text messages and emails. Yet, this was the case before Samuel Morse invented the telegraph, along with Morse code. Although it may not be obvious, the telegraph had a major impact on history. By being the first electronic communicator, it paved the path for new technological advances, changed business, politics, and war procedures, and united the nation. Samuel F. B Morse’s invention of the telegraph had a huge impact on society and made America better.

Before the invention of the telegraph in 1844 by Samuel Morse and his colleagues, news and messages traveled at a much more laborious and protracted rate. While businesses and individuals could communicate by interpersonal communication through

The telegraph was the first major advancement in communication technology. In 1838, Samuel Morse perfected and demonstrated the first telegraph machine. His machine used Morse code to send electronic currents along a wire, allowing the first high speed long distance communications. By the 1850s, the telegraph was widespread. In 1861, Western Union installed the first trans-continental line and by 1866, the first trans-Atlantic line was completed. At this time, telegraphs were all keyed by hand and transcribed from Morse code to English by ear. Fredrick Creed invented a way to convert Morse code into text in what became known as the Creed Telegraph System. That was in 1900, and by 1914, these automatic transmissions handled twice what a

As communication has evolved from Ancient times of cravings in rocks to pictograph, ideograms and alphabets to 1500 -1800 where printing was invented. Now for the 19th through the 21st Century communications is far more efficient from postage to radio broadcasting to internet which has become an important form of communication.

According to Saldana (2016), coding in qualitative analysis frequently refers to a word or a passage of text that symbolically attributes essence- capturing, salient, summative, and / or evocative attribute for a passage of text or visual information (p. 4).

The telegraph did wonders to speed up process of communication; however, it was still not ideal for everyday interaction between families and neighbors. The telegraph Morse invented was a single telegraph, sending one message at a time, so Alexander Graham Bell tried to create a multiple telegraph, sending more than one message over the same wire. At the same time, Bell and Thomas Watson, an electrician, were working on another idea in secret – the telephone. On June 2, 1875, Alexander Graham Bell discovered he could hear a sound over an electric wire, the sound of a twanging clock spring. On March 10, 1876, Bell explained in his notebook entry that his experiment was finally successful. That day he said the famous first words spoken into a telephone, “Mr. Watson, come here, I want you.” Finally solving the problems of the telegraph, Bell invented the telephone. The telegraph system was in place for about thirty years already, taking the telephone quite
