What is Morse code?

Morse code converts characters into a sequence of signals. During the 19th century, scientists explored wireless message transmission. Morse started with a restricted symbol set for essential letters. Eventually, Morse code expanded to cover the full alphabet. In 1851, a standardised form called International Morse Code was introduced.
