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. Initially, only a few letters were encoded using simple dots and spaces. Over time, it evolved into a full language of signals. A more inclusive code for all letters was finalised in 1851 as International Morse.
