What is Morse code?

Morse code is a system of communication using dots and dashes. During the 19th century, scientists explored wireless message transmission. Initially, only a few letters were encoded using simple dots and spaces. As adoption increased, a more complete version was developed. In 1851, a standardised form called International Morse Code was introduced.
