What is Morse code?

Morse code converts characters into a sequence of signals. It was originally developed in the 19th century to send messages wirelessly. Initially, only a few letters were encoded using simple dots and spaces. As adoption increased, a more complete version was developed. In 1851, a standardised form called International Morse Code was introduced.
