What is Morse code?
Morse code converts characters into a sequence of signals. During the 19th century, scientists explored wireless message transmission. Early Morse code was minimal, encoding just a handful of letters. Over time, it evolved into a full language of signals. In 1851, a standardised form called International Morse Code was introduced.
