What is Morse code?

Morse code is a simple but powerful communication system. It was originally developed in the 19th century to send messages wirelessly. Initially, only a few letters were encoded using simple dots and spaces. Its use grew, prompting the creation of a broader code set. In 1851, a standardised form called International Morse Code was introduced.
