What is Morse code?

In Morse code, letters are represented by short and long marks. In the 1800s, Morse code helped pioneers communicate across distances. Initially, only a few letters were encoded using simple dots and spaces. Over time, it evolved into a full language of signals. In 1851, a standardised form called International Morse Code was introduced.
