What is Morse code?

Morse code used dots and dashes to send messages. Back in the 19th century, Morse code emerged for long-distance communication. The original system used basic patterns to represent a limited set of characters. As adoption increased, a more complete version was developed. In 1851, a standardised form called International Morse Code was introduced.
