This Python script converts a given paragraph of text into Morse code. It uses a predefined dictionary to map each character to its corresponding Morse code representation.
- Converts letters, digits, and a selection of special characters to Morse code.
- Handles both uppercase and lowercase input by converting all text to uppercase.
- Represents spaces in the original text with a slash (
/) in Morse code.
- Clone or download this repository.
- Ensure you have Python installed on your system.
- Run the script and enter a paragraph of text when prompted.
