In summary, software code examples are snippets of code that demonstrate how to use a programming language, library, or framework. They can be found on official documentation websites, open-source code repositories, online forums, and coding tutorial websites. To ensure reliability, it is important to check the source and any comments or ratings from other users. Code examples can be used in personal projects, but must comply with licensing terms and give credit to the original author. To make the most out of code examples, it is important to understand and modify the code rather than just copying and pasting it. This can help improve coding skills and learn new techniques.

Hi. Does anyone know of any places where I can get the code of some notable notable software, or parts of it, even if it's old? Or is this totally unlikely.
