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.
