code 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. 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." Anyone referring to software as "the software codes" is probably a [newbie] or a [suit].
