 ^^^ totally not copied from Wikipedia... Basically it's a way of communication through sound using long and short sounds called dits(short sounds) and dahs(long sounds).

 First thing we need to come up with a way to express our dits and dahs (that way we can use each others programs to encode/decode morse code). **We shall use "." for dits, and "-" for dahs. For spaces how about we use " | "**... Open to suggestions on that :P.
 So our encoder should be able to convert text into the dits and dahs, and our decoder should convert dits and dahs to text.
 encoder ex:
-  * encoder --> . -. -.-. --- -.. . .-.
+  * $ ./encode <<< "encoder" --> . -. -.-. --- -.. . .-. .-.- .-.-.
-  * enc oder --> . -. -.-. | --- -.. . .-.
+  * $ ./encode <<< "enc oder" --> . -. -.-. | --- -.. . .-. .-.- .-.-.
-  * $ ./encode <<< "hello" --> .... . .-.. .-.. --- .-.- .-.
+  * $ ./encode <<< "hello" --> .... . .-.. .-.. --- .-.- .-.-.
 decode ex:
-  * . -. -.-. --- -.. . .-. --> encoder
+  * $ ./decode «< “. -. -.-. --- -.. . .-. .-.- .-.-." --> encoder
-  * . -. -.-. | --- -.. . .-. --> enc oder
+  * $ ./decode «< “. -. -.-. | --- -.. . .-. .-.- .-.-." --> enc oder
-  * $ ./decode <<< "hello" | ./decode --> hello
+  * $ ./encode <<< "hello" | ./decode --> hello

 How does one start programming on lab46?
-There might be a different way, but this is what i'm doing... So if you add this line to the file that you intend to program in, then you're all good to start programming in thee dank python. **#!/usr/bin/env python**, so all you would need to do is make the file executable, and run it whenever you want to execute your program.
+There might be a different way, but this is what i'm doing... So if you add this line to the file that you intend to program in, then you're all good to start programming in thee dank python. **#!/usr/bin/python3**, so all you would need to do is make the file executable, and run it whenever you want to execute your program. Just a note, we have decided to use python3 for our programming adventures, so make sure that you are using that, and not python2.
 Another way to run a Python Program is to simply include the command python before your script.
