Machine-readable instructions set
Computer code is the set of instructions written in a programming language that tells a computer what to do.
Code can be a few lines or millions, elegant or tangled.
To code is to write such instructions: She spent the weekend coding a new feature.
The code for a program is also called its source code or codebase.
