Communicate with signal flags

Signal flags are a traditional form of communication within shipping. Moreover, this 'shipping language' is universally established, so that international ships can communicate with each other easily and relatively quickly over distance. Each signal flag represents a letter from the alphabet as we know it or represents a number. Codes are formed by making combinations.
