What is Morse code?

Morse code converts characters into a sequence of signals. Engineers in the 1800s crafted Morse code to support telegraphy. The original system used basic patterns to represent a limited set of characters. The system was refined to represent every letter clearly. In 1851, a standardised form called International Morse Code was introduced.
