"how to protect your software code? " Code Answer

very few things in a program are truly novel. almost everything that you are likely to put into your code, someone else could invent on their own. generally more easily than they could learn it by reading your code. reading code is harder than writing it, and most programmers don't really like doing it anyway.

so it's much more likely that they will look at your app and think "i could do that", then "that's cool, i'm gonna read that code and then copy it!". even if they understand it, you will still own the copyright, you still get to market first.

i recommend that you just forget about it.
