What Is MORSE Code?

Morse code is a method of encoding text characters as sequences of two different signal durations: short signals (dots) and long signals (dashes). Each letter or number is represented by a unique combination of these signals. It was originally developed in the 1830s and 1840s for early telecommunication systems like the telegraph.

For example:

A is represented as “.-” (dot-dash)
B is “-…” (dash-dot-dot-dot)
C is “-.-.” (dash-dot-dash-dot)

Morse code was widely used in radio communication, especially in maritime and military contexts, and is still used today in certain areas, like emergency signaling.
