History of binary code

Imagen
 History of binary code The ancient Hindu mathematician Pingala presented the first known description of a binary numbering system in the 3rd century BC, which coincided with his discovery of the concept of the number zero. The modern binary system was fully documented by Leibniz, in the XVII century, in his article "Explication de l'Arithmétique Binaire". It mentions the binary symbols used by Chinese mathematicians. Leibniz used 0 and 1, just like the current binary numbering system.

ASCII CODE

 ASCII CODE PAST ASCII (American Standard Code for Information Interchange) (pronounced Aski) was created in 1963 by the American Standards Committee. And it was used to expand the characters of the morse code, then the IBM company made an 8-bit extension of the ASCII code where new characters and letters in Spanish were added such as "Ñ" Today Today the ASCII code is used in computers. Almost all computer systems today use the ASCII code to represent characters and texts

Morse code rules

Rules Each letter is separated by a short pause and each word by a long one. Long beeps are three times longer than short beeps. Morse alphabet Curious fact SOS is the international "help" signal and in Morse code it is: ... _ _ _ ...   Did you understand the use of morse code, didn't you? If you would like me to talk more about this code, leave me a comment

Other communication system

Other communication system In addition to the codes that we have seen, there are other types of codes that we use to communicate, like the one  that we will see next: Morse code Morse Code consists of dashes and dots that represent letters and numbers. And it was created in 1835 to transmit long distance messages using a telegraph. It was created by Alfred Vail and Samuel Morse while the telegraph was being invented. What is a telegraph? The telegraph is an object that uses electrical signals to transmit text messages encoded using the Morse code. It works with 2 electrical signals, one short (point) and one long (line)
