Koodissa

koodissa is a Finnish grammatical form, the inessive case of the noun koodi, meaning “in code” or “within code.” It is used to indicate location inside source code, a code block, or programming text. As a common inflection in Finnish, koodissa demonstrates how code-related content is described relative to the rest of a document or system.

Morphology and usage

The word is formed from the stem koodi (code) plus the inessive suffix -ssa, yielding koodissa. It is typically used in technical writing, documentation, and programming contexts to refer to material that exists inside code rather than in natural language text. The inessive form helps distinguish between content that is embedded in code and content that is described in prose.

Examples

- Kommentit ovat koodissa. (The comments are in the code.)

- Tiedot on määritelty koodissa, ei käyttöohjeissa. (The data are defined in the code, not in the user manual.)

- Esimerkit löytyvät koodissa, ei tekstissä. (Examples are found in the code, not in the text.)

Relation to other terms

Koodissa is part of the broader vocabulary around programming and software development, alongside koodi (code), ohjelmointi (programming), and koodaus (coding). It illustrates how Finnish uses case forms to specify where code content resides within technical materials. See also: koodi, ohjelmointi, koodaus.
