What is Morse code?

Morse code used dots and dashes to send messages. Back in the 19th century, Morse code emerged for long-distance communication. Early Morse code was minimal, encoding just a handful of letters. Eventually, Morse code expanded to cover the full alphabet. A more inclusive code for all letters was finalised in 1851 as International Morse.
