What is a "dot"?

In music, a dot is a symbol placed immediately after a note or rest that extends its duration by half of its original value. For example, if a dot is added to a half note, which normally lasts for two beats, it becomes a dotted half note that lasts for three beats. The dot extends the length of the note, making it longer than it would be without the dot. This helps to create varied rhythms and add complexity to musical compositions.
