How many times do you flash for SOS?

In Morse Code, the SOS signal is represented as three short flashes, followed by three long flashes, and then three short flashes again. This means you would flash the signal a total of nine times: three for the first "S," three for the "O," and three for the final "S." So, when signaling SOS, you flash three times, pause, flash three times, pause, and then flash three times again.
