What is Morse code?

In Morse code, letters are represented by short and long marks. During the 19th century, scientists explored wireless message transmission. 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.
