From a previous post:   It is generally accepted that the radio was invented by Guglielmo Marconi. He transmitted Morse code across the Atlantic. Others including, Oliver Lodge, Alexander Popov and Nikola Tesla are sometime given credit. Probably because they might have sent wireless messages before Marconi received his patent.

static void a(char message);
