What is Morse code?

Morse code used dots and dashes to send messages. Engineers in the 1800s crafted Morse code to support telegraphy. Initially, only a few letters were encoded using simple dots and spaces. Its use grew, prompting the creation of a broader code set. In 1851, a standardised form called International Morse Code was introduced.
