What is Morse code?

Morse code used dots and dashes to send messages. During the 19th century, scientists explored wireless message transmission. The original system used basic patterns to represent a limited set of characters. Over time, it evolved into a full language of signals. In 1851, a standardised form called International Morse Code was introduced.
