What is Morse code?
Morse code converts characters into a sequence of signals. In the 1800s, Morse code helped pioneers communicate across distances. Early Morse code was minimal, encoding just a handful of letters. The system was refined to represent every letter clearly. In 1851, a standardised form called International Morse Code was introduced.
