Dependence on the PC speaker

Some computers (including mine) don't have a configured/enabled PC speaker. Consider specifically allowing any sound output device instead. --Michael Mol 07:48, 24 August 2010 (UTC)

Multiple roles

This task covers at least three things:

  • File I/O
  • Encoding (characters to Morse)
    • Notably limited to Latin characters.
  • Sound output.

At the very least, I think these separate components should be specced in the task description as being modular components, so that there is a readable boundary in code between roles. There are some other examples of such elsewhere on the wiki. --Michael Mol 07:55, 24 August 2010 (UTC)

So let's simplify it to a direct string output. This omits the issue of File I/O, and the Python solution did that anyway. --Abu 09:46, 24 August 2010 (UTC)
String input? --Paddy3118 13:39, 24 August 2010 (UTC)
No, I meant indeed output, in the sense of "output a given string in Morse code". Anyway, the task itself says "Send a string ..." :) --Abu 13:51, 24 August 2010 (UTC)
Interesting. Now it simplifies to an encoding map. --Michael Mol 14:18, 24 August 2010 (UTC)
