Morse code is a communication system that represents letters, numbers, and punctuation as sequences of dots (·) and dashes (−). Developed in the 1830s by Samuel Morse and Alfred Vail for use with the telegraph, it revolutionized long-distance communication. Each character has a unique pattern—for example, SOS (the universal distress signal) is ··· −−− ···. The code remains valuable today for amateur radio, emergency signaling, and accessibility applications.

SOS (··· −−− ···) is the international Morse code distress signal. It was chosen not because it stands for 'Save Our Souls' but because it's one of the easiest patterns to send and recognize: three dots, three dashes, three dots. It's sent as a continuous sequence without pauses between letters.
