What is Source Code?

Source code refers to a collection of informatic code that is responsible for determining how a software program will operate based on a list of deterministic instructions and criteria. Essentially, a computer or blockchain network's source code is the primary initial state of the software during its creation. Programmers comment, edit, read, and make modifications to this source code before the initial version is finalized. Source code is often publicly released by open-source software developers to contribute to the creation of a computerized network in a fully accessible, open manner that anyone can contribute to.
