What is Morse code?

In Morse code, letters are represented by short and long marks. It was originally developed in the 19th century to send messages wirelessly. Initially, only a few letters were encoded using simple dots and spaces. As adoption increased, a more complete version was developed. In 1851, a standardised form called International Morse Code was introduced.
