What is Morse code?

Morse code is a system of communication using dots and dashes. Engineers in the 1800s crafted Morse code to support telegraphy. At first, it could only express a few characters with basic signals. Its use grew, prompting the creation of a broader code set. In 1851, a standardised form called International Morse Code was introduced.
