May I ask?

What is the reason for calling them codes? Is it nowadays popular on the internets?
You mean the plurality of the codes? Sorry, I'm not an English speaker and not sure about whether it is singular or plural :-(
I'm writing a toy os and my current goal is to resemble, simplify and understand the linux kernel. In the early stage, it's designed to be a UP/UMA preemptive kernel and will be extended to support SMP/NUMA etc in the future.
