What is code, in the most abstract sense?
Why is Programming Necessary guys?
Programming is needed because computers are not very smart. Without someone telling them what to do they are nothing more than a hunk of hardware and some flashing lights. Software is what runs on top of the hardware, and it’s where the really interesting things happen (says me, a software developer).
A computer program, also known as an application, or computer software, is a collection of instructions, or “code,” written by one or more programmers and then executed on computers.
The code can be written in any one of a number of computer languages (a.k.a. programming languages), such as C, C++, Java, Visual Basic, Perl, PHP, etc… There are literally hundreds (thousands?) of programming languages, each with its own niche. But only a handful are widely used at any given time, and languages tend to last for a few years and then slowly slip away as
new languages replace them. Some languages, however, stick around for decades (COBOL, C, and C++ are examples of long-lasting languages).
The computers that this software runs on can be desktop computers internal to a company, external customer computers, web servers, or other lesser-known specialized computers that run in cars, elevators and your microwave.

Quote:code (kōd) …
A system of signals used to represent letters or numbers in transmitting messages.
A system of symbols, letters, or words given certain arbitrary meanings, used for transmitting messages requiring secrecy or brevity.
