What is Morse code?

In Morse code, letters are represented by short and long marks. It was originally developed in the 19th century to send messages wirelessly. Morse started with a restricted symbol set for essential letters. As adoption increased, a more complete version was developed. A more inclusive code for all letters was finalised in 1851 as International Morse.
