What is Morse code?

In Morse code, letters are represented by short and long marks. Engineers in the 1800s crafted Morse code to support telegraphy. Morse started with a restricted symbol set for essential letters. Over time, it evolved into a full language of signals. In 1851, a standardised form called International Morse Code was introduced.
