What is Morse code?

Morse code is a simple but powerful communication system. It was originally developed in the 19th century to send messages wirelessly. Morse started with a restricted symbol set for essential letters. Eventually, Morse code expanded to cover the full alphabet. A more inclusive code for all letters was finalised in 1851 as International Morse.
