What is Morse code?
Morse code is a system of communication using dots and dashes. Back in the 19th century, Morse code emerged for long-distance communication. Morse started with a restricted symbol set for essential letters. Eventually, Morse code expanded to cover the full alphabet. In 1851, a standardised form called International Morse Code was introduced.
