What is Morse code?

Morse code is a system of communication using dots and dashes. Back in the 19th century, Morse code emerged for long-distance communication. The original system used basic patterns to represent a limited set of characters. Its use grew, prompting the creation of a broader code set. A more inclusive code for all letters was finalised in 1851 as International Morse.
