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. As adoption increased, a more complete version was developed. A more inclusive code for all letters was finalised in 1851 as International Morse.
