Okay. I now have had the idea for another code. > One that NO ONE will be able to understand! *laughs evilly* Okay. Now, the code: 4-2-5 1-5 4-2-3 1-3-6 4-2-3 / 1-2-3 1-5-3 1-2-3-6 1-5 4-2-3 / 1-4-5-3-6 1-5-3 1-3-6 If no one gets it, I'll give you the clue.

The Inventor of the code was born: 4th January, 1809, at Coupvray, near Paris Louis Braille became blind at the age of 3, when he accidentally poked himself in the eye with a stitching awl, one of his father's workshop tools. The injury wasn't thought to be serious until it got infected. Braille's other eye went blind because of sympathetic ophthalmia. The Braille system was based on a method of communication originally developed by Charles Barbier in response to Napoleon's demand for a code that soldiers could use to communicate silently and without light at night called night writing. Barbier's system was too complex for soldiers to learn, and was rejected by the military. In 1821 he visited the National Institute for the Blind in Paris, France, where he met Louis Braille. Braille identified the major failing of the code, which was that the human finger could not encompass the whole symbol without moving, and so could not move rapidly from one symbol to another. His modification was to use a 6 dot cell — the Braille system — which revolutionized written communication for the blind. Braille music uses the same six-position Braille cell as literary braille. However braille music assigns an entirely separate meaning to each braille symbol or group of symbols, different from literary braille, and has its own syntax and abbreviations.

In the diagram I saw of braille, the 6 dox pattern went like this: 14 25 36 So when you put the dots in the right places, it makes a character, which you put together to make Jesus Loves you! ^_^ Good job, Shadow! *tosses 10 brownie points* Consolation prize. *tosses Jenni a brownie*

yay. next one Hey jen can you make a math related one? Possibly, but I'd like to see how Andrew's code works first.

In basic braille (1) ....each six cells of raised dots represents one letter or number, but in braille (2)......one six cell could represent a whole word to save space and increase reading speed! I read that they also have an eight cell braille that some use. I read that in the 1960's 50% of all blind children could read braille. After blind schools were closed and these children were placed in regular schools where the teachers didn't know how to teach braille........the number of blind kids that could read braille dropped to around 10%! Statistics were presented that showed that it helped blind kids adjust and function better in adult life if they could read braille, so it's use has been encouraged again! Todays electronics can be used to read print to blind children that don't understand braille too!

do you see how it works now jen?

do you see how it works now jen? Lol, yes! If I use basic braille (one) the "J" would be represented by dots in position 2-4-5 , the "e" would be represented by dots in position 1-5 , the "s" by dots in position 2-3-4 , the "u" by dots in position 1-3-6 , and the "s" by dots in position 2-3-4 again! So Jesus would be=2-4-5, 1-5, 2-3-4, 1-3-6, 2-3-4 I had labeled the six cells wrong: Like this: 1-2 3-4 5-6 Instead of like this: 1-4 2-5 3-6 So for me Jesus would have use these dots= 2-3-4, 1-4, 2-3-5, 1-5-6, 2-3-5. Haha, it wasn't until I found this site that it dawned on me that my cells were numbered wrong! www.dotlessbraille.org/Five.htm

I have learned some very interesting facts and history by trying to figure out this code.......so I'm happy that it was posted on here by Andrew! Now, whenever I come across braille at the elevator or on some public bathroom doors ....I have a new found decipher skill to use! Thanks again Andrew! I think that all schools should teach some braille and sign language so that we would all have a basic understanding of ways to communicate with the blind, the deaf, and the *(dumb). * I prefer speaking impaired. The word dumb has too many negative meanings for me!

In the diagram I saw of braille, the 6 dox pattern went like this: 14 25 36 I was reading this as fourteen, twenty-five and thirty-six and it didn't make any sense! I was like fourteen dots to equal Jesus, twenty-five dots to equal loves, and thirty-six dots to equal you? ? Lol, no way!!! ;D
