How to Convert Input Words to Morse Code in Python

Morse code is a method of transmitting text information as a series of dots and dashes. If you're learning Python and have the desire to translate input words into Morse code, you've come to the right place. In this guide, I will walk you through a solution for converting any word inputted by the user into its corresponding Morse code format, using a dictionary to store the letter-to-Morse code mappings.

Understanding the Problem

The initial challenge presented was ensuring that a user's input word could be broken down and properly converted into Morse code. While some progress was made in the code provided, it only transmitted the Morse code for a single letter. The objective now is to create a script that accurately accepts full words and translates each letter into Morse code.

Setting Up the Morse Code Dictionary

Let's start by establishing our Morse code dictionary. This dictionary will serve as our reference point to translate each letter into its Morse code equivalent.

Writing the Function

Now that we have our dictionary, it is time to create a function, Morse, that will process user input and convert it to Morse code.

1. Getting User Input

Firstly, we want to collect input from the user while ensuring that it only contains letters. We can use a regular expression to validate the input.

2. Validating the Input

To handle incorrect input, we'll implement a loop that repeatedly prompts the user until valid letters are entered.

3. Converting Letters to Morse Code

Once we have validated input, we can convert each letter to its Morse code equivalent using our dictionary, and add the results to a list.

Here’s how the complete function looks:

Example Output

If a user inputs the word "ads", the output will be:

This output indicates that the letters "a", "d", and "s" were translated into their corresponding Morse code symbols.

Conclusion

This simple, yet effective, Python script allows you to translate any inputted word into Morse code utilizing a dictionary for letter correspondence. By ensuring that only valid letters are accepted and employing a straightforward conversion process, you can easily expand this program for more advanced functionalities in the future. Happy coding!
