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. Initially, only a few letters were encoded using simple dots and spaces. The system was refined to represent every letter clearly. In 1851, a standardised form called International Morse Code was introduced.
