What is Morse code?

Morse code used dots and dashes to send messages. Back in the 19th century, Morse code emerged for long-distance communication. At first, it could only express a few characters with basic signals. Over time, it evolved into a full language of signals. In 1851, a standardised form called International Morse Code was introduced.
