What does it mean to code?

People say that learning to code is a very useful skill. What does it mean exactly?

I can do data analysis and visualization in python and R. Does that mean I can code? Or does coding mean full stack developers?

Is coding a general umbrella term for all types of programming (including excel)?

Without code a computer doesn’t do anything. What coding is in the most simple terms is given it a set of instructions to do something. We almost always code in a programming language which is then compiled and translated into machine code that the computer can read and then execute.
