What is Morse code?

Morse code is a system of communication using dots and dashes. Back in the 19th century, Morse code emerged for long-distance communication. Morse started with a restricted symbol set for essential letters. Eventually, Morse code expanded to cover the full alphabet. The refined system was officially named International Morse Code in 1851.
