What is Morse code?

In Morse code, letters are represented by short and long marks. Engineers in the 1800s crafted Morse code to support telegraphy. The original system used basic patterns to represent a limited set of characters. As adoption increased, a more complete version was developed. A more inclusive code for all letters was finalised in 1851 as International Morse.
