Both acted as written codes of law for classical civilizations.
The Code of Hammurabi is a comprehensive Babylonian law code, dating from about 1772 BCE, making it one of the oldest deciphered writings of significant length in the world. The laws are arranged in orderly groups, so that everyone who read them would know what was required under law.
The Ten Commandments is a fairly short code that is substantially about worship, with the first three of the ten commandments requiring believers to worship God only and the fourth requiring observance of the Sabbath. The fifth commandment tells us to honour our parents, which is a commandment more about family relations than law. The next four commandments are concerned with prohibiting murder, adultery, theft and false witness, but only as general statements. The tenth commandment can be defined as dealing with protecting property rights because it tells us not to covet the property of our neighbour, but it does not tell us how to sue a person for thinking these things. Both codes are concerned with achieving an orderly society, but there are few other similarities.

The Code of Hammurabi is one of the oldest surviving text artifacts left from the Old Babylonian period. It is an early example of a fundamental law code that regulated government. In other words, it is an example of a very primitive, early form of a constitution.

The Ten Commandments are traditionally thought to have been handed down in the fifteenth century BCE, although scholars say that they were actually written several centuries later. The Hammurabi Code is far older than that.
They have nothing to do with Hammurabi, whose laws expose themselves as being both cruel and laden with idolatrous beliefs.
The polytheistic law-code of Hammurabi was assembled by human beings, while the Torah which includes the Ten Commandments (Exodus ch.20) was, according to tradition, given by God (Exodus 24:12). The code of Hammurabi, and those of Eshnuna, Lipit-Ishtar and the Hittites (etc.), were subject to occasional revision, reversal, and eventual abandonment, while the Torah's commands were not. Many law codes limit themselves to legal matters, whereas the Torah intersperses its laws with moral exhortations and subjects of belief, behavior and attitudes. The Jews, by and large, adhered to the practices of the Torah, which calls for kindness, charity, scholarliness, the value of human life, equal treatment, and the abhorrence of promiscuity. The code of Hammurabi, on the other hand, calls for literal retaliation. Robbers are killed. Women are not considered legally equal to men; and landless men are not judged equally to landowners.
The ten commandments were laws that specifically based on the don`ts whiles the in the Hammurabi code the law came with a punishment for breaking it

The Ten Commandments were a set of moral and religious laws handed down by God to Moses in the Hebrew Bible, emphasizing principles of worshiping one God and ethical behavior. The Code of Hammurabi was a set of laws governing the people of ancient Babylon, focusing on social and legal issues such as crime, commerce, and family relationships. Both were codes of laws, but the Ten Commandments had a more religious and moral focus while the Code of Hammurabi was more comprehensive in governing various aspects of society.
Both Moses and Hammurabi gave their people a set of laws to guide their lives. Moses gave the Israelites the Ten Commandments while Hammurabi gave his people 282 laws known as the Code of Hammurabi.
