Code Module

Definitions

1. A self-contained unit of code organization, usually with a defined interface and a coherent set of responsibilities. Modules help manage complexity by creating boundaries for reuse, testing, and dependency control within a codebase.

   In plain English: A self-contained chunk of code organized around a particular responsibility.

   Example: "The payments module exposed a narrow public interface so the rest of the application could not reach into its internal retry and ledger logic directly."
