1 definition found From The Jargon File (version 4.4.7, 29 Dec 2003) [jargon]: code 1. n. The stuff that software writers write, either in source form or after translation by a compiler or assembler. Often used in opposition to ?data?, which is the stuff that code operates on. Among hackers this is a mass noun, as in ?How much code does it take to do a bubble sort??, or ?The code is loaded at the high end of RAM.? Among scientific programmers it is sometimes a count noun equilvalent to ?program?; thus they may speak of ? codes? in the plural. Anyone referring to software as ?the software codes? is probably a newbie or a suit. 2. v. To write code. In this sense, always refers to source code rather than compiled. ?I coded an Emacs clone in two hours!? This verb is a bit of a cultural marker associated with the Unix and minicomputer traditions (and lately Linux); people within that culture prefer v. ?code? to v. ?program? whereas outside it the reverse is normally true.
