What is Morse code?

Morse code is a system of communication using dots and dashes. In the 1800s, Morse code helped pioneers communicate across distances. At first, it could only express a few characters with basic signals. Its use grew, prompting the creation of a broader code set. A more inclusive code for all letters was finalised in 1851 as International Morse.
