DitDah

Welcome to your new gem! In this directory, you'll find the files you need to be able to package up your Ruby library into a gem. Put your Ruby code in the file lib/dit_dah. To experiment with that code, run bin/console for an interactive prompt.

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem 'dit_dah'

And then execute:

$ bundle install

Or install it yourself as:

$ gem install dit_dah

A quick rundown of the components:

# Create the object
morse_obj = DitDah::DitDah.new

# Set text that you want to convert to morse code
morse_obj.set_input_text "Hello there stranger"

# Get that input text
# Return value is the string split into a character array
text = morse_obj.get_input_text

# Convert/Translate to morse code
morse_code = morse_obj.to_morse_code

# Optionally: you can pass an argument
morse_code2 = morse_obj.to_morse_code "Try me instead"

# View morse_code stored in an array
p morse_code

# Save it to a string
morse_code_string = ""
morse_code.each { |element| morse_code_string << "#{element} "}

# View string
puts morse_code_string

# Retrieve the morse code equivalence from the object
morse_code_var = morse_obj.get_morse_code
p morse_code_var

# MORSE_HASH
# Look at the hash map that translates alphabetical characters to morse code characters
puts DitDah::DitDah::MORSE_HASH

After checking out the repo, run bin/setup to install dependencies. Then, run rake spec to run the tests. You can also run bin/console for an interactive prompt that will allow you to experiment.
