Code
Code - A system of regulations pertaining to the design, manufacture, installation and maintenance of elevators, dumbwaiters, escalators and moving walks. The most widely recognized and used is ANSI A-17.1 sponsored by the National Bureau of Standards, The American Institute of Architects, The American Society of Mechanical Engineers, and published by ASME. It has been adopted by many states. Some states and cities have written their own codes, most of which are based on the ANSI A

code
<software> Instructions for a computer in some programming language, often machine language. The word "code" is often used to distinguish instructions from data (e.g. "The code is marked 'read-only'") whereas "software" is used in contrast with "hardware" and may consist of more than just code.

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.

Code, Codes
CODE, CODES - Legislation. Signifies in general a collection of laws. It is a name given to a collection of such laws made by a legislature. Among the most noted are the following:

UNITED STATES CODE - Contains the statutes of the U.S. government, the federal laws. It is usually abbreviated as 'U.S.C.' and is divided into more than 40 Titles, each dealing with a general subject area.

LES CING CODES - French Law. The five codes.

These codes are; 1st. Code Civil, which is divided into three books; book 1, treats of persons and of the enjoyment and privation of civil rights; book 2, of property and its different modifications; book 3, of the different ways of acquiring property.

- 2d. Code de procedure civille which is divided into two parts. Part 1, is divided into five books; 1. of justices of the. peace; 2. of inferior tribunals; 3. of royal courts; 4. of extraordinary means of proceeding; 5. of execution and judgment. Part 2 is divided into three books; 1. of tender and consignation; 2. of process in relation to the opening of a succession; 3. of arbitration.

- 3d. Code de Commerce, in four books; 1. of commerce in general; 2. of maritime comraerce; 3. of failures and bankruptcy; 4. of commercial jurisdiction.

- 4th. Code d'Instructions Criminelle, in two books; 1. of judiciary police, and its officers; 2. of the administration of justice.

-5th. Code Penal, in four books; 1. of punishment in criminal and correctional cases, and their effects; 2. of the persons punishable, excusable or responsible for their crimes or misdemeanors; 3. of crimes, misdemeanors, and their punishment; 4. of contraventions of police and their punishment.

Henrion de Pansey, late a president of the Court of Cassation, remarks in reference to these codes: 'In the midst of the innovations of these later times, a system of uniformity has suddenly engrossed all minds, and we have had imposed upon us the same weights, the same measures, the same laws, civil, criminal, rural and commercial. These new codes, like everything which comes from the hand of man, have imperfections and obscurities. The administration of them is committed to nearly thirty sovereign courts and a multitude of petty tribunals, composed of only three judges, and yet are invested with the right of determining in the last resort, under many circumstances. Each tribunal the natural interpreter of these laws applies them according to its own view, and the new codes were scarcely in operation before this beautiful system of uniformity became nothing more than a vain theory.'

CODE HENRI - A digest of the laws of Haiti enacted by Henri, King of Haiti. It is based upon the Code Napoleon, but not servilely copied. It is said to be judiciously adapted to the situation of Haiti. A collection of laws made by order of Henry III of France is also known by the name of Code Henri.

CODE OF LOUISIANA - In 1822, Peter Derbigny, Edward Livingston and Moreau Lislet were selected by the legislature to revise and amend the civil code, and to add to it such laws still in force as were not included therein. They were authorized to add a system of commercial law and a code of practice. The code they prepared having been adopted, was promulgated in 1824 under the title of the 'Civil Code of the State of Louisiana.'

The code is based on the Code Napoleon, with proper and judicious modifications suitable for the state of Louisiana. It is composed of three books: 1. The first treats of persons; 2. The second of things and of the different modifications of property, and; 3. The third of the different modes of acquiring the property of things. It contains 3522 articles, numbered from the beginning for the convenience of reference.

This code contains many inaccurate definitions. The legislature modified and changed many of the provisions relating to the positive legislation, but adopted the definitions and abstract doctrines of the code without material alterations. From this circumstance, as well as from the inherent difficulty of the subject, the positive provisions of the code are often at variance with the theoretical part which was intended to elucidate them.

This code went into operation on May 20th, 1825. It is in both the French and English languages; and in construing it it is a rule that when the expressions used in the French text of the code are more comprehensive than those used in English, or vice versa, the more enlarged sense will be taken, as thus full effect will be given to both clauses.

CODE NAPOLEON - The Code Civil of France, enacted into law during the reign of Napoleon bore his name until the restoration of the Bourbons when it was deprived of that name and is now cited just as 'Code Civil'.

CODE PAPIRIAN - The name of a collection of the Roman laws promulgated by Romulus, Numa and other kings who governed Rome till the time of Tarquin the Proud. It was so called in honor of Sextus Parrius, the compiler.

CODE PRUSSIAN - Allgemeines Landrecht. This code is also known by the name of Codex Fredericianus or Frederician code. It was compiled by order of Frederic H. by the minister of justice, Samuel Cocceji, who completed a part of it before his death in 1755. In 1780, the work was renewed under the superintendence of the minister Von Carmer, prosecuted with unceasing activity, and published in six parts from 1784 to 1788. The opinions of those who understood the subject were requested and prizes offered on the best commentaries on it. The whole was completed in 1791, under the title 'General Prussian Code.'

CODE THEODOSIAN - This code, which originated in the eastern empire, was adopted in the Western empire towards its decline. It is a collection of the legislation of the Christian emperors, from and including Constantine to Theodosius the Younger. It is composed of sixteen books, the edicts, acts, rescripts, and ordinances of the two empires, that of the east and that of the west.

Code, Justinian
CODE, JUSTINIAN - A collection of the constitutions of the emperors from Adrian to Justinian; the greater part of those from Adrian to Constantine are mere rescripts; those from Constantine to Justinian are edicts or laws, properly speaking.

The code is divided into twelve books, which are subdivided into titles in which the constitutions are collected under proper heads. They are placed in chronological order, but often disjointed. At the head of each constitution is placed the name of the emperor who is the author, and that of the person to whom it is addressed. The date is at the end. Several of these constitutions which were formerly in the code were lost, it is supposed by the neglect of copyists. Some of them have been restored by modern authors who translated them from Greek versions.

Codes
Codes are values of a grouping variable (e.g., 1, 2, 3, ... or MALE, FEMALE) which identify the levels of the grouping variable in an analysis. Codes can either be text values or integer values.

code
1. A set of unambiguous rules specifying the manner in which data may be represented in a discrete form. Note 1: Codes may be used for brevity or security. Note 2: Use of a code provides a means of converting information into a form suitable for communications, processing, or encryption. (188 ) 2. [Any] system of communication in which arbitrary groups of letters, numbers, or symbols represent units of plain text of varying length. Note: Codes may or may not provide security. Common uses include: (a) converting information into a form suitable for communications or encryption, (b) reducing the length of time required to transmit information, (c) describing the instructions which control the operation of a computer, and (d) converting plain text to meaningless combinations of letters or numbers and vice versa. [NIS] 3. A cryptosystem in which the cryptographic equivalents, (usually called "code groups") typically consisting of letters or digits (or both) in otherwise meaningless combinations, are substituted for plain text elements which are primarily words, phrases, or sentences. 4. A set of rules that maps the elements of one set, the coded set, onto the elements of another set, the code element set. Synonym coding scheme. 5. A set of items, such as abbreviations, that represents corresponding members of another set. 6. To represent data or a computer program in a symbolic form that can be accepted by a processor. 7. To write a routine.

Code
A set of rules, a mapping or a transformation establishing correspondences between the elements in its domain and the elements in its range or between the characters of two different alphabets. information maintaining codes establish one-to-one correspondences. Information loosing codes establish many-to-one and/or one-to-many correspondences. When a code relates a set of signs to a set of meanings by convention, a code can be seen to constitute symbols. When it maps a set of behaviors into a set of legal categories, a code can be seen to be one of law. When it accounts for the transformation of one kind or signal into another kind of signal it can be seen to describe an input-output device. When applied to linguistic expressions it is a translation. According to Webster's, "to codify" is "to reduce to a code," to systematize, to classify. Indeed, any many-to-one code defines an equivalence relation or classification of the elements in its domain. It is incorrect to call a set of signs (to which a code may apply) a code.
