What is Morse code?

In Morse code, letters are represented by short and long marks. Back in the 19th century, Morse code emerged for long-distance communication. At first, it could only express a few characters with basic signals. As adoption increased, a more complete version was developed. A more inclusive code for all letters was finalised in 1851 as International Morse.
