What is Morse code?

Morse code is a system of communication using dots and dashes. 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.
