What is Morse code?

Morse code used dots and dashes to send messages. Engineers in the 1800s crafted Morse code to support telegraphy. At first, it could only express a few characters with basic signals. Eventually, Morse code expanded to cover the full alphabet. A more inclusive code for all letters was finalised in 1851 as International Morse.
