What is Morse code?

Morse code is a system of communication using dots and dashes. During the 19th century, scientists explored wireless message transmission. Early Morse code was minimal, encoding just a handful of letters. The system was refined to represent every letter clearly. A more inclusive code for all letters was finalised in 1851 as International Morse.
