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. Morse started with a restricted symbol set for essential letters. Over time, it evolved into a full language of signals. A more inclusive code for all letters was finalised in 1851 as International Morse.
