Creationists FAIL at definitions
1) The sequence of base pairs in DNA is a code.
Like soooo many other Creationists, you rely on words which have multiple, non-precise meanings.
Define "CODE".
Code - a secret hidden message?
Code - a series of instructions?
Code - a collection of rules?
Code - a system for communication?
Code - a hospital emergency?
Is DNA a series of instructions? Could be considered that. Does that mean that a magical invisible masturbation obsessed infanticidal Jewish wizard created them? No. That's SILLY.
The rocks on a cliff face are not an intentional "code". However, pebbles falling down that face tend to pile up in a predictable bell curve at the bottom. Therefore the rock on the cliff face are CODING for the bell curve at the bottom.
Did the crazy Jewish wizard SPECIFICALLY place each rock where it is with the "purpose" of controlling how the pebbles land? Does that help him kill children or monitor masturbation?
It's simply intellectually lazy to look at something complicated and declare - someone made that using magic.
