The Code of Non-Infringement (or "The Code") refers to the accepted business practice and custom among certain performance artists, particularly clowns, that an artist's unique performance attributes are proprietary and cannot be used or claimed by another. Among clowns, these attributes may include stage names, costume elements, facial designs, as well as a clown's specific jokes or "gags" and "bits".
According to the code, no two performers may have exactly the same face or costume. Clown performers believe that the code is independent of any protection that may be afforded by the law, particularly intellectual property law.
A code is a rule for converting a piece of information into another object or action, not necessarily of the same sort.
Code may also refer to:
The Code is a Finnish-made documentary about Linux from 2001, featuring some of the most influential people of the free software movement.

Code Monkeys is an American animated television program by Adam de la Peña. Set in the early 1980s, it follows the adventures of fictional video game company GameaVision.
The show first aired on July 11, 2007. Two seasons have aired on G4 and G4 Canada. In September 2008, the show began airing on the Teletoon Detour block on Teletoon in Canada.
While G4 was vague on the future of the show after the end of the second season, it was announced in May 2009 that the show would not be renewed for a third season.
The plot of Code Monkeys revolves around the fictitious video game company GameaVision (a play on companies like Activision and Intellivision) and its eccentric employees, mainly the slacker Dave and his high-strung friend Jerry. The entire series takes place in the Silicon Valley city of Sunnyvale, California during the 1980s. The humor of Code Monkeys relies on crude humor and stoner comedy to convey the numerous references to video games, past and present, but mostly games from the 8-bit era. This also extends to cameos from well known video game developers, who appear in the show pitching their ideas to GameaVision for the games that would later make them famous, usually to be rejected, insulted, and sometimes injured or killed off.
The Code Monkeys was a British software house based in Yorkshire and working mostly in the home computer market. It was one of the oldest independent developers in the UK.
The company was founded by Colin Hogg and Mark Kirkby who had previously developed several games. The Code Monkeys went on to develop games for home computers as far back as the ZX81 and video game consoles such as the Mega Drive and the original PlayStation. In January 2010 the company scaled back its development team because of "production needs and predictions" for the year ahead. The company announced on 1 February 2011 that "the Directors/Shareholders of The Code Monkeys voted to cease trading". Before the company closed, they developed games for the mobile market on iPhone and iPod Touch devices.
