ELI5: Explain Like I'm 5

Line code

LINE code is a way of explaining instructions to a computer. It is like a set of directions for a computer to follow, like making a recipe. Imagine you want to make a cake. To do this you need to get the ingredients, mix them together, put them in the oven, and wait for the cake to be ready. LINE code is like writing down all of these instructions in a particular way so the computer knows what to do.
