Doodle 4 Google Contest

One of my favorite contests is Doodle 4 Google! The theme this year is, "If I could travel in time, I'd visit..." This is your chance to take the Google Logo and change it! You must have a title for your doodle and a 50 words or less statement to explain your answer to the theme!
Happy Doodling!

High Tech Codes

Codes that translate letters into numbers are called alpha-numeric codes.

Codes that use only two symbols are called binary codes.
Morse code is an example of binary code, it uses only dots and dashes.

ASCII (American Standard for Computer Information Interchange) is an alpha-numeric binary code used by computers. It only uses ones and zeros.

Here are two games for you to test your Morse Code and Binary Code skills! Happy Coding!
