JoeM

THIS SESSION IS NOW LIVE: WATCH VIDEO BELOW!!!

 

 

This challenge is a special Inspire edition and will have rules for completion! Complete the following challenges in order as they are listed. Once you complete the first challenge, you will graduate to the next tier of challenge, until you summit! Use the 'expect equals' to quickly verify you have completed each level. At the end of 20 minutes, we will see who has ascended the most levels

 

 

Base Camp: You've already arrived at basecamp - you opened this workflow!

 

Camp 1: Decrypt the morse code message to a clean readable text. Hint: There is a space between morse code letters and a '/' separating words

 

Camp 2: In the message from camp 1, parse out the expedition ID and use it to find the 'accident' for that expedition.

 

Camp 3: Recompile the message in 'accidents' back into morse code. Hint: Make sure there is a space between characters and a '/' between words. Check your answer against the expected output by connecting it to the 'expect equals' tool.

 

Try entering your message at: https://morsecode.scphillips.com/translator.html

 

Summit: Post your workflow back to the Community!

Apparently I don't know how to tag people correctly. Advice?

It took me quite some times to figure it out that the expected out response of the start package pattern are different from the  message  that you manually convert ( I'm not sure is it only for me only or not) 

 

you should get message from 'accidents' and try to convert yourself first from the url provided

 

anyway it was fun to do :)
